I've been on a little bit of an AI IP licensing spree for the IPKat lately: I have *a lot* of thoughts... ipkitten.blogspot.com/2025/10/your... ipkitten.blogspot.com/2025/10/as-a... ipkitten.blogspot.com/2025/10/copy...

Some feels about the Anthropic settlement. Spoiler: this is a joke and authors and human creativity deserves more than this. Also how is future competition and authorial livelihood irrelevant. Some far nicer words here: ipkitten.blogspot.com/2025/09/gues...

Marking IP essays and the answer for nearly all problems, according to most students, is codification? Am I missing something here? Since when did the common law go out of fashion? 😆

Georgia Jenkins @ipquokka.bsky.social · 25/02/2025
I think there needs to be more nuance though. Again we're artists are used to front policy change while publishers continue to licence authorial works to #AI companies. There needs to be a distinction of #copyright holders ie. authors vs those holding exploitation rights.

Amazing. Though nothing new in #copyright land. Amending boundaries to only foster new online business models - now it is #AI. Where is the author, the artist, the performer in these discussions? Clearly, absent. #UKpolitics youtu.be/l-7CKyg4qgw

What an excellent paper! Asking for a shift in the way data is governed by framing it as infrastructure (as opposed to an individual lens/propertisation) - incredibly helpful for the generative AI copyright debates currently in the UK.

Catching up now on Yuga Labs v. Ripps hearing from Monday. Ripps makes an'artivism' argument on the use of BAYC NFTs. But, the District Court held that Ripps' NFTs were not artistic. On appeal, Ripps argues it is avant-garde art - to push boundaries of free speech.

Thought to check how those Satan Shoes are going for an article on freedom of expression and trade marks - loving the Nike swoosh TM being 'censored'. How far dilution should go if the mark is still communicating despite no actual use?
