Is AI art copyrightable?

AI Art Copyright: Abstract Rebellion's Stance on Prompt Authorship

The rapid advancement of AI-generated art has sparked a complex debate surrounding the copyrightability of these computational artworks. As traditional notions of authorship and creativity are challenged, Abstract Rebellion firmly believes that the author of the prompt provided to the AI system should be recognized as the rightful copyright holder of the resulting artwork.

While AI algorithms contribute their unique computational capabilities to the creative process, the human artist's vision, direction, and curation of the AI's output are integral to the final artistic expression. The artist's prompt acts as a guiding force, shaping the AI's parameters and influencing the resulting artwork.

Abstract Rebellion's stance on prompt authorship aligns with established principles in copyright law. Just as a photographer owns the copyright to their photographs despite not manually crafting every pixel, a human artist using AI as a collaborative tool should be granted copyright ownership over the AI-generated artwork they direct and shape.

The U.S. Copyright Office has consistently held that AI-generated art lacks human authorship and is ineligible for copyright protection under current law. Abstract Rebellion believes that this interpretation fails to acknowledge the crucial role of the human artist in the creative process.

As the U.S. Copyright Office continues to examine copyright law and policy issues raised by AI, including seeking public comments and planning to issue a report in 2024, Abstract Rebellion remains committed to advocating for the recognition of prompt authorship in AI-generated art.

Abstract Rebellion is dedicated to responsibly exploring the intersection of art and AI, upholding ethical standards, and respecting intellectual property rights. By promoting transparency and responsible practices, we aim to foster a creative environment that encourages human-AI collaboration while acknowledging the vital role of human artists in the process.

As the debate surrounding AI art copyright continues to evolve, Abstract Rebellion firmly believes that the prompt's author should be recognized as the rightful copyright holder of AI-generated artworks. By engaging in open dialogue and advocating for prompt authorship, we strive to shape a future where the contributions of human artists in the AI-driven creative process are valued and protected.
