Artists lose first copyright battle in the fight against AI-generated images::But the fight may not be lost as the court allowed the artists to claim copyright infringement against Stability AI, Midjourney, and DevianArt, on workpieces that the artists had filed a copyright for.

My understanding has always been that artworks that you create are your intellectual property that is automatically copywrited, at least in the United States. From the article it seems like that is either not true or it's being ignored by the court.

It is automatically copyrighted, but you do have to register before you bring a legal action for infringement.

What does it being automatically copyrighted mean then?

[-] brianorca@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It means the registration can be retroactive when you do need to file a case.
