AI Content

Under US copyright office guidelines and court rulings, AI-generated content, including works created using models like Diffusion, is not eligible for copyright protection. This determination stems from the foundational principle that copyright law safeguards expressions of human creativity. As AI-generated content arises from algorithmic processes guided by user prompts rather than original human authorship, it lacks the necessary element of human intellectual input to qualify for copyright.

In essence, the user provides instructions to the AI, akin to dictating a text or providing parameters for an artistic creation. The AI, acting as a sophisticated tool, executes these instructions, producing an output based on its training data and algorithms. This process does not constitute the independent creation of a protectable work under copyright law.
