Copyright Office Rejects Application for Refusal To Disclaim AI-Generated Elements -

The U.S. Copyright Office has once again refused to register a visual work that included elements generated using artificial intelligence (AI). In this most recent case, the work was a digital work submitted by Jason M. Allen entitled “Théâtre D’opéra Spatial.” The crux of the Copyright Office decision was that Allen’s work contained more than a de minimis amount of AI-generated content, which Allen refused to disclaim in his application.
