Opinion by T Bone Burnett and Jonathan Taplin: The problem is not just the immiseration of artists’ incomes. It’s also the ingesting of mountains of artistic content and then reconstituting it as faux original work.

Yet a nation’s cultural life is not a minor matter, and preserving artists’ rights is essential to ensuring their continued contribution. Any reasonable interpretation of existing copyright lawto protect against abuses, but that doesn’t always happen. A case now before the Supreme Courtthe artist Andy Warhol’s unauthorized use of a photographer’s image of the musician Prince could dictate the direction copyright law will take in the coming years.

But another solution may be needed: new laws and regulations governing AI and safeguarding the human core of creative artistry., “If a superior alien civilization sent us a message saying, ‘We’ll arrive in a few decades,’ would we just reply, ‘OK, call us when you get here – we’ll leave the lights on’? Probably not – but this is more or less what is happening with AI.” That was nine years ago. It’s still happening.
