Why TDM Exceptions Fail to Liberate Unlicensed AI Innovation—What You Need to Know Now
Autumn leaves may be falling, but one debate refuses to lose its grip: the tangled crossroads of AI development and copyright law. It’s a topic that’s as hot as a freshly brewed cup of coffee on a chilly morning, and no, it’s not just about whether AI training steps on copyright toes—that ship sailed long ago. Instead, we’re wrestling with a far thornier question: how do we strike the right balance between protecting creators’ rights and fueling the insatiable appetite of AI developers who want to use copyrighted works without a formal nod?
