The US Copyright Office is navigating a critical period marked by significant AI-related copyright lawsuits and a lack of leadership following the controversial firing of Register Shira Perlmutter. After her ousting by the White House, she is now engaged in a legal battle over the validity of her dismissal. The office, previously seen as dormant, is now more active in issuing rulings on AI and copyright issues, raising questions about the legitimacy of its actions without a permanent leader.
It's a tumultuous time for copyright in the United States, with dozens of potentially economy-shaking AI copyright lawsuits winding through the courts.
Described as 'sleepy' in the past, the Copyright Office has taken on new prominence during the AI boom, issuing key rulings about AI and copyright.
