Does this apply to any photo taken by a camera with "AI" filters? There must be a line somewhere.

The current line is not based on a maximum AI input but a minimum human input. You aimed the camera, your copyright. You have an AI just create fake pictures and post them without someone in the loop, no copyright. The questions are mostly about how little you have to do.

We know about all of the potential harms that deepfakes can cause, the problems with inherent bias in training data, etc. Creating/publicising a tool that winks at these issues (consider the difference between the poses offered for 'male' and 'female' bodies) but does nothing to mitigate them - and a lot to enable them - is irresponsible at best.

It would be quite hard to make any AI tool that preemptively avoids the wide range of potential issues that you've mentioned. If tool makers are forced to always err on the side of caution, it's likely that the resulting tool ends up disappointing.

Only when published, and when put into context of the entire work, could a creation deemed harmful. A tool should not, for example, prevent you from making a bunch of images with ominous poses, from which you select one to use with an article that discusses the history of ominous poses.

There haven't been any solid rulings on the copyright validity of human-driven AI generation yet. There have been a few cases, but they've been muddied by complicating factors (not a human doing the generation - that is, autonomous generation - or the generation being used as a base work for something else). Additionally, even if there's no copyright, the terms of service may still apply separately (see OpenAI disall…

A copyright is a government granted monopoly. The copyright office has stated they wont grant monopoly privilege for ai generated art. The courts thus far have backed them up.

I would say it doesnt look good at the moment for to try and enforce ownership of something ai generated, it would be an uphill battle, and the default/null position would be that the art is free to use, and unprotected by government.

Why is it impossible to generate a male model wearing anything other than rolled denim jean shorts? I've tried things like "long pants" or "ankle-length pants," but I cannot get it to stop putting them all in denim shorts!

Try with cargo pants. After three or four iterations the pants disappeared and were substituted by something that can only be described as an andrologist fever dream.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

While that may be the status today, I feel this is in no way settled.
