Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the potential copyright crisis brought about by generative AI, highlighting how even a 6-year-old can create potentially infringing content in seconds using AI tools, which poses significant challenges for the intellectual property (IP) industry [1][12][14]. Group 1: AI and Copyright Challenges - A 6-year-old child was able to create a fully interactive website called "Bedtime Story Weaver" using Google AI Studio in under 2 minutes without any coding experience [6][5]. - The website allows users to generate complete stories and illustrations based on simple inputs, demonstrating how AI can democratize content creation [6][8]. - The child generated a story featuring characters from major franchises like Sonic and Mario, which raised immediate concerns about copyright infringement [10][12]. Group 2: Implications for IP Professionals - Jonathan Menkes, an IP lawyer, emphasized that the ease of generating infringing content with AI tools indicates that many in the IP industry are unprepared for the challenges posed by AI [13][14]. - The traditional barriers to creating infringing content, such as the need for technical skills and software, have been eliminated, making it accessible to anyone, including children [14][13]. - Menkes advocates for IP professionals to understand AI technology and anticipate the issues and opportunities it presents, as the scale and speed of potential infringements far exceed traditional monitoring capabilities [14][15]. Group 3: Recommendations for IP Holders - IP holders should assess their current copyright monitoring systems to ensure they can handle the scale of AI-generated content [14][15]. - Companies are encouraged to test new AI tools for built-in copyright safety mechanisms and to push for the implementation of filtering systems if such mechanisms are lacking [15][16]. - Establishing a rapid response mechanism to address infringements promptly is crucial, as the future of IP enforcement may depend on the ability to compel AI companies to implement protective measures [16][14]. Group 4: Future Outlook - There is concern that only large corporations will be able to effectively navigate the evolving copyright landscape, potentially leaving individual creators and small companies vulnerable to exploitation by AI [17][14]. - The article suggests that while AI may necessitate urgent updates to copyright laws, the outcome remains uncertain, with ongoing debates about the implications for creators and IP holders [17][14].

Core Argument - The U.S. Supreme Court is considering a case involving Cox Communications, which is seeking to avoid financial liability in a significant music copyright lawsuit brought by record labels accusing the company of enabling user piracy of thousands of songs [1][2]. Group 1: Legal Context - The justices expressed skepticism regarding Cox's claim that mere awareness of user piracy should not result in liability for copyright infringement [2][3]. - A previous jury found Cox liable for $1 billion due to secondary liability for infringement by its customers, which involved over 10,000 copyrights [5][7]. - The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the damages award in 2024, leading to a retrial to determine the amount owed to the labels [5][7]. Group 2: Implications for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) - ISPs are generally not held liable for user infringement if they take reasonable preventive measures, but the labels argue that Cox failed to address numerous infringement notices and did not cut off access for repeat infringers [6]. - The justices are concerned about the potential impact on innocent users if copyright enforcement becomes overly broad, which could lead to ISPs terminating service for entire households or institutions based on a single user's infringement [3][11]. Group 3: Industry Reactions - Major tech companies, including Alphabet's Google, Amazon, and Microsoft, have supported Cox in this case, while music, film, and book industry trade groups have backed the record labels [12].

试想，一位学生向生成式人工智能提问选题，并根据AI提示和回答撰写了一篇论文，然而，他却没有发 现，已经有相关学者在若干年前就提出了完全相同的论点，而这篇论文恰好包含在这一生成式AI的训练数 据集中。其原作者完全有理由对这种未经授权的抄袭行为感到恼火，然而，他们是否应该采取法律行动？ 大量的司法诉讼和法律评论文章都在探讨生成式人工智能系统是否侵犯了作者在模型训练过程中大量吸收 的作品的版权。但在我们的假设案例中，版权问题的答案很明确：AI的使用者仅仅使用了其他人的"思 想"，而没有使用他们的"表达方式"。思想本身不受版权保护。 然而，人工智能输出的创意存在一个问题——抄袭。摘录一整章作品并注明出处，你侵犯了版权，但并不 构成抄袭；将他人的想法据为己有，你构成了抄袭，但并不构成侵权。这种区别至关重要。 许多机构都在努力规范基于人工智能的复制行为，因此思考人工智能辅助抄袭问题至关重要。本文旨在为 这些新的治理方案如何应对抄袭问题提供路线图，并厘清其中涉及的不同危害。 简单来说，抄袭固然是一个问题，但它并非——也不应该是——法律问题。 一、打破 "引用链"：依赖AI无意中成为抄袭者 ChatGPT和其他生成式人工智能 ...
