I’ve generally been against giving AI works copyright, but this article presented what I felt were compelling arguments for why I might be wrong. What do you think?

    As an author, I say cut the term waaay down. 12 years plus the option for a 12-year one-time renewal.

    Some will get screwed, but the entire populace will gain.

      I’d been thinking recently that cutting the copyright term down to 20 years would be reasonable. So while 12 years feels a bit low to me, the optional 12 year renewal (taking it to 24 years in total) works just fine. You have my vote.
