Copyright is a legal concept that gives creators exclusive rights over their creative works, including the rights to copy, distribute, and license adaptations of the work. Creators automatically receive copyright protections once their creative expression is fixed in a tangible medium, and they retain these rights whether the work is published, unpublished, or shared online. The document outlines different types of copyright licenses and protections, exceptions like fair use, issues around orphan works, and provides guidance on understanding and complying with copyright rules and obtaining permissions to use others' creative works.
This is a Power point presentation where it explains in depth about Copyright Law. It discusses how copyright can affect the creators and the reason consumers should ask for permission to use the creator's work.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
2. What is copyright?
It is a legal concept, enacted by most
governments, giving the creator exclusive rights to it.
Generally, it is “ the right to copy”, but also
gives the copyright holder the right to be credited for
the work, to determine who may adapt the work to
other forms, who may perform the work, who may
financially benefit from it, and other related rights.
3. This is your right as a copyright owner
The Copyright Act gives
all authors a set of rights that
only they may exercise.
These include the right to
make copies, to prepare
derivative works, to publicly
distribute, display and perform
the work, and in the case of
digital sound recordings, to
perform the works over a
digital network.
4. What you need to know about
copyright protection…
Many people assume that everything posted
on the Internet is public domain, probably
because our law used to protect published works
only if they displayed the proper copyright
notice upon publication. The law, however, has
changed: neither publication nor a notice of any
kind is required to protect works today.
5. The facts
Simply putting the pen to the paper or in the
electronic medium, putting the fingers to the save
key creates a copyrighted work. Once expression is
committed to a tangible medium (and computer
media is considered tangible), copyright protection is
automatic. So, postings of all kinds are protected the
same as published printed works.
6. Implied and express licenses to use
Internet materials
You can easily give your works an express
license by attaching a Creative Commons license to
the materials you post on your Website, or upload
to other sites.
It's easy and it sends the message that you want
your materials to be part of the flow of creativity.
7. License design and rationale
using Creative Commons
All Creative Commons licenses have many important
features in common. Every license helps creators — we
call them licensors if they use these tools — retain
copyright while allowing others to copy, distribute, and
make some uses of their work — at least non-
commercially. Every Creative Commons license also
ensures licensors get the credit for their work they
deserve.
8. Creative Commons licenses
Every Creative Commons license works around
the world and lasts as long as applicable copyright lasts
(because they are built on copyright).
These common features serve as the baseline, on
top of which licensors can choose to grant additional
permissions when deciding how they want their work to
be used.
9. Liability for posting infringing works
The proliferation of RIAA lawsuits against individuals for
peer-to-peer file-sharing make clear that individuals can be
liable for their own actions when they copy and distribute
others' copyrighted works without permission.
10. Fair use and its role?
Fair use is the right, in some circumstances, to quote
copyrighted material without asking permission or paying
for it. Fair use enables the creation of new culture, and
keeps current copyright holders from being private
censors. With the Washington College of Law, the Center
for Social Media creates tools for creators, teachers, and
researchers to better use their fair use rights.
11. Fair use role…
Fair use plays a critical role in the analog
world where duplicating technology is cumbersome
and authors make money by controlling copies. It
balances authors' rights to reasonable compensation
with the public's rights to the ideas contained in
copyrighted works.
12. Getting permission
Assuming the work you wish to use is protected, the
work has not been licensed for your use online, and
your use is not a fair use or otherwise exempt from
liability for infringement, you need permission.
Check the Copyright Clearance Center("CCC") first.
If the work you want to use is registered with the
CCC, you can get permission instantly for most
materials. If your institution subscribes to the
academic license and your work is covered, you don't
have to do anything -- your use is covered.
13. Mass Digitization of Library
Collections is revealing a treasure trove of heretofor
obscured works, works in the public domain that can be
shared broadly with the public, and orphan works, those
still protected, but whose copyright owners are
unknown, unable to be located, or unresponsive.
14. What you need to know about
orphan works and public domain
Orphan Works are those
books, records, images, compositions, manuscripts, mov
ies, screenplays, painting and drawings, in short, any
work protected by copyright whose owner cannot be
determined or located or who does not respond when
contacted.
15. The public Domain
Public Domain is considered if a work is published
without proper notice (name of publisher and date) during certain
time frames (1923-1989), it becomes part of the public domain. If
it is not published, or if it is published after 1989 without
indication of the author is, its protection is automatic and lasts for
the life of the author plus 70 years in the U.S. (and longer in some
countries).
16. Conclusion
When you use others’ creative
expressions, set time aside to understand
copyrights and licenses rules that are linked to
their original creation.

Editor's Notes
Whenever an author posts anything on the Internet, he or she should reasonably expect that it will be read, downloaded, printed out, forwarded, and even used as the basis for other works to some degree. So, just by posting, an author impliedly grants a limited license to use her work in this manner.
A Creative Commons licensor answers a few simple questions on the path to choosing a license — first, do I want to allow commercial use or not, and then second, do I want to allow derivative works or not? If a licensor decides to allow derivative works, she may also choose to require that anyone who uses the work — we call them licensees — to make that new work available under the same license terms. We call this idea “ShareAlike” and it is one of the mechanisms that (if chosen) helps the digital commons grow over time. ShareAlike is inspired by the GNU General Public License, used by many free and open source software projects.
