Here's a bit of a 'Game your lawyer' Alpha. Asking your lawyer to draft an agreement from scratch actually costs less than asking your lawyer to review an AI-Generated Agreement that the lawyer will tear apart. I sometimes literally tell the client 'listen bud, I really could have extracted 2x the fee here and gone through your AI Slop, but I just drafted a new agreement for you as it's cheaper'. Being ethical has made me poorer, but happier tbh.

@BenWest @Ed_Balloon @IPProfEvans The output of an AI tool can't be protected by copyright under current US law, full stop. If you create something (using a non-AI tool) that you layer into it, you can protect that layer

@Ed_Balloon @IPProfEvans The output of the tool can be potentially considered art regardless of the level of effort involved. Lots of low effort art out there. But I think the underlying problem tied to your point is why is the model able to create that art... Its likely cause its using others work.

@Ed_Balloon @thehackettman No - as it stands anything created by AI (regardless of the level of instruction) is ineligible for copyright protection. You can make the music, but people can steal it because everything that comes from AI is public domain. Elements that you add manually are protectable.

@nix_eth These are the questions they will struggle with. If the underlying photo was taken by a person, adjustments (removal, retouching, even complete filtering) shouldn't impact the overall copyrightability, but you may still need to disclose

@samfromthecouch If I use an AI model to make tonal or lightning adjustments to a photo? Is the photo now 100% AI? Or what if the camera has AI to automatically remove people at shoot?

@nypost I honestly cannot believe the City is getting to a point where an article like this is merited.

used to argue footy with an Arsenal fan friend from college who always said ‘I still can’t see how Lampard was ever a Ballon d’Or runner-up’ (to Ronaldinho, no less). clips like this show you why.

The whole “Anthropic sent lawyers after Clawdbot” thing is so overblown. Anyone in business knows that you literally have to defend your trademark. If you don’t you can lose it. You can’t go oh hey, these guys are cool. They can infringe on my trademark we will give them a hall pass. The act of doing that can be used against you in future trademark cases.

The real story here is worse than a fumble. It’s a three-step own goal. January 9: Anthropic locks Claude Code OAuth tokens, killing every third-party tool that built on Claude subscriptions. OpenClaw, which recommended Claude Opus 4.5 as its default model, wakes up to a broken integration. No warning. No partner outreach. January 27: Anthropic’s legal team sends the cease-and-desist over “Clawdbot” sounding too similar to “Claude.” Steinberger complies at 5 AM on a Discord call. During the 10-second window where he releases the old GitHub and X handles, crypto scammers hijack both accounts and run a $16M pump-and-dump scheme. The chaos reflects on the entire Claude ecosystem. February 15: Steinberger announces he’s joining OpenAI. So Anthropic had the fastest-growing open source project in AI history (145K+ GitHub stars, 2 million visitors in a single week), built by a guy who sold his last company for ~€100M, whose tool literally recommended Claude as the default model to millions of new users. Their response was to cut off his API access and send lawyers. Steinberger spent last week in San Francisco meeting with every major lab. He explicitly said he could have built OpenClaw into a massive company but chose OpenAI because he wanted “the fastest way to bring this to everyone.” Meanwhile OpenClaw has already spread to China, with Baidu planning direct integration into its main app. This is a project that was essentially a free distribution channel for Claude. Millions of developers installing a tool that defaults to your model. The growth marketing team at Anthropic should have been sending gift baskets, not legal notices. Sam Altman just got handed an open-source agent framework with global distribution and a brilliant founder, because Anthropic’s legal department moved faster than their partnerships team.

‘Source Energy’ is now live on @niftygateway curated by @ombruja. 20 limited editions at .11eth. niftygateway.com/collections/ar… This piece is a collaboration with past versions of myself who I had to learn to let go of to embrace this new season of my life. It’s the first piece where I incorporate one of my own music loops which is unlocking a door in my creative process I’d long kept closed. I have honored and surrendered to the ever changing flow of my life and this piece is the embodiment of that. May it serve you well.
