You are confusing copyright and patents, which are two very different things. And yes, companies or people wielding AIs can patent anything that hasn't been claimed by others before.


But how can you patent something that was created by AI that cannot take ownership of anything and different AIs can produce the same result.

Is achieving the same result using different engines the same as designing combustion engine in different ways?

How public domain translate to that?

I really hope it kills any ways to claim patents on anything.

AI does not create anything, anymore than Word writes documents or Photoshop creates photos.
