About the event

This session will explore copyrightability and authorship of AI-assisted creative works that are increasingly used in writing as well as film, video, images and other formats. We’ll examine:

• what AI terms of service agreements say about ownership and liability of AI outputs,
• how publishing contracts, institutional policies, and professional ethics address, or fail to address, AI use.
• the challenges of identifying AI-generated content, particularly in publications, donor materials, and acquisitions, and why it matters for authenticity, provenance, and preservation. 

Participants will leave with practical considerations for the legal and ethical risks of AI, and the implications for authorship, ownership, and maintaining the integrity of collections.
