    Watching a video or reading an article by a human isn’t copyright infringement, why then if an “AI” do it then it is? I believe the copyright infringement it’s made by the prompt so by the user not the tool.

      What does this human is going to do with this reading ? Are they going to produce something by using part of this book or this article ?

      If yes, that’s copyright infringement.

      If you read an article, then copy parts of that article into a new article, that’s copyright infringement. Same with ais.

        Depends on how much is copied, if it’s a small amount it’s fair use.

          Fair use is a four factor test amount used is a factor but a low amount being used doesn’t strictly mean something is fair use. You could use a single frame of a movie and have it not qualify as fair use.

          Fair use depends on a lot, and just being a small amount doesn’t factor in. It’s the actual use. Small amounts just often fly under the nose of legal teams.
