AI and Copyright Law | AusLaw

Just a small ramble about AI and copyright law because I find it incredibly interesting. So I'm sure a lot of people are familiar with the infamous Naturo v. David Slater case that occurred in America in the mid-2010s, in which a monkey took a selfie on a man's camera and Slater, said man, was trying to claim copyright over it. It was ruled in the end that he did not own copyright, but nor did the monkey as the monkey is not a person and has no legal footing of ownership.

Under the Copyright Act 1968, only humans in Australia can claim copyright and legal ownership over a produced item, meaning any good. I am trying to find proof of this and am unable to at this time but I also think its reasonable to say that the law prohibits the manufacturers of a product hold any claim to things produced with their product to certain degrees (i.e. Sony doesn't own images taken with sony cameras once they sell them).

I am curious to see how this translates into AI-generated images. As of now there are no laws of copyright in Australia regarding AI images so if we were to apply the current copyright law who would own those images?

Well, you must be human to hold copyright which AI is not. But to use the camera manufacturer analogy, can the creator of an AI reasonably own anything produced with their product, especially given the nature of AI at this point in time.

If current AI models are simply reading the internet and merging information how are we able to put a title of ownership on parts of an image. A library doesn't own the books they shelve anymore than you don't legally own a book just because you read and referenced them.

In the monkey analogy, we are the monkey, using a tool (the camera or the AI) and the owner of the camera is the creator of that AI. As our current laws stand no one owns those images!

I'm just fascinated by how this will develop over the coming years.

Today is a great day.

I won’t clog tumblr with my joy too much but today is a great day for transparency, smug bastards getting fucked over, and banter defo cases. Ben Roberts-Smith conclusively lost the defamation trial in which, we must all remember, he was the plaintiff.

"While it is difficult to forget that Ben Roberts-Smith is our plaintiff here, it bears repeating as some people may conclude that this evidence doesn't reflect well on him." (Thanks r/auslaw bot)

Nine/Fairfax are celebrating and you CANNOT blame them.

避免移民申请误区：选择澳大利亚移民律师的实用建议

移民澳大利亚是一项���要且复杂的决策，既涉及到生活环境的巨大转变，也需面对严格的法律和行政程序。作为一个主要的移民国家，澳大利亚吸引了大量的申请者。然而，由于对法律程序和要求不够熟悉，许多申请人在过程中遇到各种困难和误区。以下是一些实用的建议，帮助您避开常见的移民申请误区，顺利开启澳洲新生活。

选择合适的移民法律顾问

移民律师和移民中介的服务有很大区别。移民律师具备深厚的法律背景，能够提供法律咨询和定制化的法律支持，并有权代理移民上诉案件。而移民中介通常只能提供一般性建议，且不能代表客户进行法律诉讼。因此，选择一位专业的移民律师可以确保您的申请过程更加顺利和高效。

常见误区及应对策略

1. 不了解签证类型和要求

许多申请人并不清楚自己适合哪种签证类别，导致选择错误或提交不符合要求的申请材料。为了避免这种情况，建议在申请人在申请前详细了解不同签证类型的具体要求。例如，商业投资移民、技术职业移民、伴侣家庭移民和工作雇佣移民等各有不同的条件和流程。

2. 材料准备不充分

签证申请需要提供大量的证明文件，包括学历、工作经历、语言成绩等。不完整或不准确的材料会导致申请被拒。因此，务必按照要求准备并检查所有材料，确保其真实性和完整性。聘请专业律师可以帮助您审查和整理这些文件，避免不必要的失误。

3. 忽视语言要求

英语水平是许多签证类型的重要条件之一，雅思成绩常常是衡量标准。部分申请人忽视了这一点，导致因语言成绩不达标而被拒签。因此，申请人应提前了解并准备语言考试，确保成绩符合要求。

4. 未充分了解职业评估

对于技术职业移民来说，职业评估是关键步骤之一。不同职业有不同的评估标准和机构，申请人需要提前了解相关要求并准备相应材料。未通过职业评估将直接影响签证申请的结果。

5. 忽略签证居住要求

拿到签证后，许多申请人不清楚澳大利亚���居住要求，可能因未达到居住时间而失去永久居留身份。了解并遵守相关居住要求，确保按时满足条件，才能保持移民身份的有效性。

服务流程及优势

专业的移民律师团队不仅提供签证服务，还为客户规划合理的人生选择。以下是一般服务流程：

1. 首次咨询：了解客户情况，分析移民需求。

2. 确定委托：签订委托协议，正式启动服务。

3. 处理移民案件：收集并准备申请材料，提交签证申请。

4. 进度汇报：定期向客户汇报申请进展。

5. 完成委托：获得签证后提供后续支持和答疑。

Are law students paying our 'lazy tax'?

Law teachers, ask yourself 5 questions before your law students pay your 'lazy tax' #auslaw #legaleducation #lawschool #lawstudents

First semester is about to start for law schools in the southern hemisphere.  For many law students, their first day and the first class of law school is the end of a fantastic chapter of hard work. Data from the United States tells us that most students arriving at colleges are ‘non-traditional’ in the sense that they might be older, employed and with dependants.  Reforms to Australian tertiary…

The failure of our drug driving regime to set prescribed concentration levels - like drink driving - means drivers can be criminalised for small traces that cannot impair.

Billable rates often pose a greater challenge than conflicts for lateral partners

In my experience, very few law firms in Australia have any consideration to this issue:

"Billable rates often pose a greater challenge than conflicts for lateral partners… …Envision a partner explaining a rate increase to a major client due to a switch to a larger firm; this could likely result in client loss"
