      This has been the copyright office’s stance for quite a while now. Actually, most of the world’s respective IP registrars and authorities do not grant IP rights to AI generated material.

          I agree. I think the effective entry into the public domain of AI generated material, in combination with a lot of reporting/marking laws coming online is an effective incentive to keep a lot of material human made for large corporate actors who don’t like releasing stuff from their own control.

          What I’d like to see in addition to this is a requirement that content-producing models all be open source as well. Note, I don’t think we need weird new IP rights that are effectively a “right to learn from” or the like.
