140 - Generative AI and Copyright, with Chris Callison-Burch

In this special episode, we chatted with Chris Callison-Burch about
his testimony in the recent U.S. Congress Hearing on the
Interoperability of AI and Copyright Law. We started by asking
Chris about the purpose and the structure of this hearing. Then we
talked about the ongoing discussion on how the copyright law is
applicable to content generated by AI systems, the potential risks
generative AI poses to artists, and Chris’ take on all of this. We
end the episode with a recording of Chris’ opening statement at the
hearing.
