Artists can now copyright works created with the assistance of artificial intelligence, as per a recent report by the U.S. Copyright Office. This development is expected to pave the way for the increased utilization of AI tools in various creative industries such as Hollywood and the music sector.
The U.S. Copyright Office, housed within the Library of Congress, receives approximately 500,000 copyright applications annually, covering millions of individual works. With the rising trend of AI-generated works, the office has been increasingly tasked with registering such creations.
