AI LAW : What Every Creator Using AI Needs to Know
“ Required reading for every entrepreneur, lawyer, executive and creative professional. ” Kelly Zmack
Video Game Executive
From writers and artists to filmmakers, musicians, designers, programmers, and entrepreneurs, millions of people are now using generative AI tools. Yet the legal rules surrounding these tools remain confusing, misunderstood, and rapidly evolving.
In AI LAW , entertainment and technology attorney Dan Lee Rogers explains how copyright, authorship, fair use, licensing, and liability actually function in the age of artificial intelligence. Using real cases and real-world examples, he translates complex legal issues into clear, practical concepts that creators and professionals can understand and use.
Rather than hype or speculation, this book offers a grounded framework for navigating the legal landscape surrounding generative AI.
Inside you’ll learn:
• Who owns AI-assisted creative work
• What “fair use” really means in the AI era
• How copyright law treats AI-generated material
• Licensing and contract risks most creators overlook
• How to protect your work—and your future
Drawing on more than forty years of working across the creative industries—as a video game executive, intellectual property attorney, working musician, and novelist—Rogers brings a rare insider perspective on how creative work is actually made, licensed, protected, and challenged.
If you create, publish, design, code, compose, or produce anything in the modern digital world, AI LAW will help you understand the rules that now shape your work.
