  • From the article …

    A Yale source said the US state department deleted the evidence which would have been used as part of rescue efforts to get the children home to Ukraine. It would also have been used to prosecute those behind their abductions – including Russian president Vladimir Putin.

    ”It is unclear whether it was by accident or intent, but it may reveal or it may cause potential criminal liability for the Trump administration, given international prohibitions against the destruction of war crimes evidence,” the Yale insider told The Independent.


  • From United States Copyright Office

    Based on an analysis of copyright law and policy, informed by the many thoughtful comments in response to our NOI, the Office makes the following conclusions and recommendations:

    • Questions of copyrightability and AI can be resolved pursuant to existing law, without the need for legislative change.

    • The use of AI tools to assist rather than stand in for human creativity does not affect the availability of copyright protection for the output.

    • Copyright protects the original expression in a work created by a human author, even if the work also includes AI-generated material.

    • Copyright does not extend to purely AI-generated material, or material where there is insufficient human control over the expressive elements.

    • Whether human contributions to AI-generated outputs are sufficient to constitute authorship must be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

    • Based on the functioning of current generally available technology, prompts do not alone provide sufficient control.

    • Human authors are entitled to copyright in their works of authorship that are perceptible in AI-generated outputs, as well as the creative selection, coordination, or arrangement of material in the outputs, or creative modifications of the outputs.

    • The case has not been made for additional copyright or sui generis protection for AI- generated content.

    The Office will continue to monitor technological and legal developments to determine whether any of these conclusions should be revisited. It will also provide ongoing assistance to the public, including through additional registration guidance and an update to the Compendium of U.S. Copyright Office Practices.
