Investigating AI: Introduction – This is an introduction to a series of blogs that will investigate various aspects of copyright and artificial intelligence, often from the perspectives of professionals who have been or anticipate being impacted by AI negatively. Also, we will share the perspectives of others who have found effective ways to use AI ethically. For example, we identify more closely with later camp because we frequently write and speak about our uses of AI for research and fact checking.
Additionally, the series will identify some best practices for using AI ethically, legally, and with full disclosure and transparency in mind. The AI Transparency Badges that were introduced in a previous blog will be used to indicate if the entire blog is either AI-Generated, AI-Assisted, or Human Authored.
