Florian Roth decided not to share his detection methods anymore.

This is what I'm afraiding and know why LLMs ruining things... not because on how good they are at noticing things, but the way these LLM companies work.

They just scrap data, without giving any incentives to the data owner they used.

I hope we can pass this timeline ASAP.

UMG Settles $500M Lawsuit Against Believe & TuneCore Claiming Fake Songs by ‘Kendrik Laamar’

Thinking about the #copyright status of generated code and text, and having learned about how photographs were deemed eligible for copyright (despite the human not having actually created the image), I'm very curious about #software --- if it is copyrighted, does that mean the binary / executable is copyrighted? The literal 1s and 0s? No human made that string of numbers; a compiler did.

아야츠지 유키토의 작품을 흉내 낸 가짜 책이 Amazon에 등장했으며, 본인이 AI로 만들어진 것 같다고 주의를 환기했다. AI가 생성한 저작물과 저작권·출판 유통 문제를 보여주는 사례다.

A baseless copyright claim against a web host shows how broken this part of the system has become.

1 May did not post the image in question, did not own the site where it appeared, and had the image removed after notice. Even so, payment was still demanded.

That is what happens when copyright enforcement becomes a pressure tactic. Small hosts, nonprofits, and community groups are expected to panic first and argue later.

A demand letter is not the same as a valid legal claim, and hosting content is not the same as publishing it.

A Baseless Copyright Claim Against a Web Host—and Why It Failed

Higbee & Associates, a law firm known for sending copyright demand letters to website owners, targeted May First Movement Technology, accusing it of infringing a photograph owned by Agence France-Presse (AFP). The claim was baseless. May First didn’t post the photo. It didn’t even own the website where the photo appeared.
