  Not just jobs. AI can’t hold copyright. This could have messy legal implications.

    I believe that in theory but has that been established by case law or precedent? I’m interested because I have not heard that. I could totally see law makers say companies can hold copyright, company owns Ai system, company now owns the copyright to what Ai made.

      Its well established law that human people must be the creator of a copyrighted work. There have even already been cases involving LLMs and other generative AI that have upheld the precedent.
