Listen "Revisiting Copyright through the Lens of AI"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we're joined by Florian Schneider, a prominent figure navigating the intersections of art, technology, and documentary practices. As a filmmaker, writer, curator, and esteemed Professor at NTNU, Florian has spearheaded groundbreaking discussions on the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in reshaping creativity and ownership across the cultural landscape, particularly in architecture.We delve into Florian's insights on how AI is transforming traditional notions of intellectual property, introducing the concept of "imaginary property" and challenging us to rethink ownership in the digital age. We explore the resistance of architecture to intellectual property laws, contrasted with its prevalence in cinema and literature, and the implications of the data economy's rise on creative industries.Join us as we discuss the impact of generative AI and automation on conventional intellectual property rights, the potential for cross-creation, and the need for new juridical concepts to address the intertwined futures of humans, machines, and collective creativity.
