The existing legal precedence
I know that's how law works, but there is no precedent for AI at this scale and will only get worse. What if AI gains full sentience? Are they a legally recognised person? Do they have rights and do they not own the copyright themselves? All very good questions with no precedent in law.
Exactly! When you pay for a service you own the copyright, like having a photoshop license. I meant in other situations where it's free or provided as research tools to engineers under a company.
