The US Copyright Office has recently made significant decisions regarding copyrights in the realm of artificial intelligence and music. In a landmark case, the Copyright Office awarded a 'compilation' copyright to a novel written with the assistance of AI, specifically ChatGPT, involving author Elisa Shupe. This type of copyright pertains only to the 'selection, coordination, and arrangement' of text, not the underlying AI-generated content itself. Concurrently, the music industry is witnessing legal battles over copyright issues, with Ed Sheeran's song 'Thinking Out Loud' being scrutinized for its similarities to Marvin Gaye's 'Let's Get It On.' A US appeals court is currently reviewing whether to revive a lawsuit against Sheeran, after he had previously won against the heirs of the co-writer of Gaye's song.
