In the U.S. , AI - generated Creation — Book , motion-picture show , and so forth — that have been edit by a human being can likely be copyright , but those without any human modifications or add-on can not .

That’saccording to a reportpublished by the U.S. Copyright Office ( USCO ) on Wednesday , which sketch scenarios in which AI - generated content might be eligible for IP protections . Per the guidelines , a movie production house , for exercise , could copyright a film in which they used an AI tool to “ de - age ” actors or remove objects from a scene .

Prompts alone ( for instance “ a sketch of a flower in springtime ” ) do n’t unremarkably produce work that can be copyright . But the USCO made clear in its report that copyright must be watch on a example - by - fount base .
