Generative AI Has an Intellectual Property Problem

Generative AI, which uses data lakes and question snippets to recover patterns and relationships, is becoming more prevalent in creative industries. However, the legal implications of using generative AI are still unclear, particularly in relation to copyright infringement, ownership of AI-generated works, and unlicensed content in training data. Courts are currently trying to establish how intellectual property laws should be applied to generative AI, and several cases have already been filed. To protect themselves from these risks, companies that use generative AI need to ensure that they are in compliance with the law and take steps to mitigate potential risks, such as ensuring they use training data free from unlicensed content and developing ways to show provenance of generated content.

21 best ChatGPT alternatives

Search Engine Journal: “…This article looks at 21 alternatives to ChatGPT, describing each product, who may want to check it out and why. An important thing to remember as you go through this list: these products are at very early developmental stages. Some will rapidly develop and improve, a few will be shut down, and others will pivot away entirely from what they’re doing now. I’d recommend trying them out for the specific function you’re using ChatGPT for now or would like to use ChatGPT for but haven’t had success with and see how they fit your own process. Generally, in this article, I’m comparing ChatGPT “out of the box” in the web interface as it is currently constituted. OpenAI recently announced plugins for ChatGPT (including a browser plugin ), which may start to bridge the gap between ChatGPT and some of these alternatives. If you have some coding ability, you may be able to change the difference in capabilities by leveraging those and the ChatGPT API.”
