In this session, we’ll explore the sizable chunk of this activity that has copyright implications, such as fraudsters submitting music by famous artists to streaming services and claiming it as their own. We’ll examine these sources of streaming fraud and the roles that streaming services, independent distributors, labels, and technology providers can play in mitigating it.

Now opt-out is being discussed as a way for creators to ensure that their works aren’t used to train generative AI systems. How might such schemes work, what are the practical implications for content creators and service providers alike, and what are the alternatives? Our panel will look at opt-out schemes being considered today as well as likely paths forward.

Today, AI technologies are poised to disrupt at least as much as file-sharing did. What lessons can we learn from the file-sharing experience – both positive and negative? We’ll hear from attorneys, technologists, and policy wonks who lived through the post-Napster era as they offer their thoughts on how to navigate the decade to come.

How will this work in practice as AI-powered tools pervade more and more aspects of content creation processes? What will creators be able to claim as their own, and what evidence will they need to show that they created it themselves? How will these standards evolve as AI technology progresses, and how will litigators use the standards to challenge copyright registrations in court? The session will discuss this emerging conundrum of copyright in the AI age.
