Animals are sentient. They cannot own copyrights. Proving the AI is sentient does nothing to make its outputs copyrightable.

Well put. We are so jealous of our own sentience that we eat most of the other sentients. The idea that we’d show the respect of intellectual-property protections to another species is laughable; our jealousy is biblical.

You understand this makes you sound insane right?

Humans don’t eat sentient species out of jealousy.

Jealousy in the biblical sense means being fiercely protective of one’s domain and prerogatives, and exclusionary to the point of not tolerating any other options. It’s not jealousy in the human-to-human sense.

jealous jĕl′əs adjective

  1. Envious or resentful of the good fortune or achievements of another.
  2. Fearful or wary of losing one's position or situation to someone else, especially in a sexual relationship.
  3. Having to do with or arising from feelings of envy, apprehension, or bitterness.

I understand you’re not mentally sound so this is a waste of time but for your sake I’m going to let you know, you are speaking gibberish.

People do not eat sentient animals out of jealousy.

Your nonsensical religious definition has nothing to do with why people eat sentient animals.
