Re: [LIS-Forum] [society4servingseniors] AI as an author and copyright
by Padmanabha Vyasamoorthy 26 Dec '22

Here is the complete book of 18 pages of the comic book Kashtanova. Looks fine, I can not imagine it was produced by AI !! I wish to remind you that AI itself is a product of the human brain only. There are self learning mechanisms built in and therefore one day it may outgrow our expectations / limitations! Yesterday I saw the movie Endiran - story of a robot that destroys itself in the end as the robot realises it has started having feelings / emotions!
