The Legal Paige® Season 7 Episode 5

AI is everywhere—whether you’re using it to streamline workflows, generate content, or enhance images, it’s likely already a part of your business. But did you know how you use AI can impact copyright law and even put you at legal risk if you’re not disclosing it correctly?

In this episode, I’m diving into why AI disclosures are becoming essential for business owners and what the US Copyright Office is saying about AI-generated content. From a real-life case of a photographer’s AI-edited image getting rejected for copyright registration to the ethical and legal risks of AI in contracts, I’m covering everything you need to know to stay legally legit in the AI era.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why AI-generated content may not be copyrightable (and what that means for you).
  • How the US Copyright Office is handling AI disclosures in copyright registrations.
  • The legal and ethical risks of using AI for contracts, marketing, and content creation.
  • Where and how to disclose AI use in your business (client contracts, website policies, and more).
  • Why failing to disclose AI-generated work could land you in legal trouble.
