In response to this craze, the US Copyright Office (USCO) recently issued guidelines for copyright protection of AI-enabled works.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><u>Are these creations copyrightable ?<\/u><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Last year, author Kris Kashtanova claimed to be the first person to have been granted a copyright for a work created via AI. Indeed, the application to register her comic book &#8220;Zarya of the Dawn&#8221;, whose images were created exclusively by AI, was approved by the USCO.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The USCO then reconsidered its decision and asked for additional information since the images were created with the help of Midjourney.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After re-examining the file, the USCO decided to cancel its decision to grant copyright and issued a new modified certificate:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u27a1 the elements created by Kris Kashtanova, namely the writing, will be protected by copyright ;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u27a1 on the other hand, the images generated by the AI <strong>are not copyrightable, as only human creations can be copyrighted.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thus, the same work can have a partial protection regime according to the different sources of the creation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this case, the images were totally generated by the AI. But, in other cases, it could be possible that the human <strong>selects, adapts and arranges the content generated by the AI in a sufficiently creative way so that the resulting work as a whole could constitute an original work protectable by copyright.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So there will be a case-by-case assessment by the USCO. Applicants who submit their works for registration in the US will have to be precise in the explanation of their creative process (how was the AI used? for which part of the work? &#8230;).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7220\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joffeassocies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Image1-269x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"269\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joffeassocies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Image1-269x300.jpg 269w, https:\/\/www.joffeassocies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Image1-768x858.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.joffeassocies.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Image1.jpg 811w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 269px) 100vw, 269px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><i>Zarya<\/i><i> of the Dawn, par Kris <\/i><i>Kashtanova<\/i><i>.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Download our newsletter in french here. &nbsp;
