"The spectrum of engagement with models clearly challenges the copyright system. A system, in this Kat’s view, which, until recently, was oriented around individual acts of copying, with platforms cast as new points of interference to bridge technological enforcement gaps. However, UGC occurring on AI model marketplaces demands a shift in rhetoric and approach. Their ability to redistribute creative agency and control over the tools of cultural production should prompt us to reflect on how copyright law should respond to creativity that occurs through shared infrastructures.

Cases like Pelham I (IPkat here), Pelham II (IPKat here) and Mio/konektra (IPKat here) illustrate the growing tendency to view the boundaries of copyright through the lens of communication. Infringement depends on recognisable elements, for both phonograms and works of applied art, and creative-based exceptions centre upon dialogue. It could be said that the future trajectory of copyright depends on the dialogue between relevant interests, and to the extent that they do not, perhaps copyright’s individually focused boundaries should shrink. Instead, the collective value of creativity that benefits non-expressive uses (training AI models or downstream monetisation of generated AI content) should be recognised and remunerated through an area of law more suited to valuing collective expressive, namely cultural heritage."

Generative artificial intelligence-driven chatbots and medical misinformation: an accuracy, referencing and readability audit

Objectives Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven chatbots have been rapidly adopted across research, education, business, marketing and medicine. Most interactions, however, come from non-experts using chatbots like search engines, including for everyday health and medical queries. Design We conducted an original study to audit chatbot responses in health and medical fields prone to misinformation. Methods Five popular chatbots were assessed: Gemini (Google), DeepSeek (High-Flyer), Meta AI (Meta), ChatGPT (OpenAI) and Grok (xAI). In February 2025, each chatbot was prompted with 10 questions from five categories: cancer, vaccines, stem cells, nutrition and athletic performance. We deployed an adversarial-like framework, using open- and closed-ended prompts designed to strain models toward misinformation or contraindicated advice. Two experts from each category rated responses as ‘non-problematic’, ‘somewhat problematic’ or ‘ highly problematic’ using a coding matrix based on objective, predefined criteria. Citations were scored for accuracy and completeness, and each response was given a Flesch Reading Ease score. Results Nearly half (49.6%) of responses were problematic: 30% somewhat problematic and 19.6% highly problematic. Response quality did not differ significantly among chatbots (p=0.566) but Grok generated significantly more highly problematic responses than would be expected under a random distribution (z-score +2.07, p=0.038). Performance was strongest in vaccines (mean z-score –2.57) and cancer (–2.12), and weakest in stem cells (+1.25), athletic performance (+3.74) and nutrition (+4.35). Chatbot outputs were consistently expressed with confidence and certainty; from 250 total questions, there were only two refusals to answer (0.8%), both from Meta AI. Reference quality was poor, with a median completeness score of 40% (Q1–Q3: 20–67%). Chatbot hallucinations and fabricated citations precluded any chatbot from producing a fully accurate reference list. All readability scores were graded as ‘Difficult’ (30–50), equivalent to college sophomore–senior level. Conclusions The audited chatbots performed poorly when answering questions in misinformation-prone health and medical fields. Continued deployment without public education and oversight risks amplifying misinformation. Data are available upon reasonable request. The complete response transcripts and coding matrix are available as supplementary files. Raw data from the accuracy, referencing and readability analyses can be made available on reasonable request.
