On UnCommon Law, legal issues, public policy, and storytelling collide. We'll explore the most important legal stories of the day: Is affirmative action in college admissions constitutional? Is it time to kill the bar exam? Should social media face special legal scrutiny? What are law firms doing to fix their lack of diversity? This podcast, hosted by Matthew S. Schwartz, was the winner of the American Bar Association's Silver Gavel Award for Media and the Arts.

4. Artists Argue AI Art Illegally Steals Work and Threatens Careers
The US copyright system encourages human creativity. So does it make sense to grant a copyright to work created by AI with the click of a button? And, if AI generated artwork is given copyright protection, how would that impact the livelihoods of creative professionals?
In our last episode, we looked at Jason Allen’s AI-generated artwork, "Théatre D’opéra Spatial," and the arguments why it should have some copyright protection. This time, we examine the other side – the most powerful arguments for why AI-generated work should never be eligible for copyright.
Guests:
Jason M. Allen, founder of Art Incarnate
Sy Damle, partner in the copyright litigation group at Latham & Watkins
Karla Ortiz, artist
Kelly McKernan, artist
Delanie West, advocacy liaison for the Graphic Artists Guild
Genel Jumalon, artist
