Connecting “Copyrights in AI” to Copyright and Licensing Homework

In the rapidly advancing world of artificial intelligence (AI), the intersection of technology and law has become increasingly complex. One of the most pressing legal issues is how copyright laws apply to AI-generated content. This is exactly what the article, “Copyrights in AI: Legal Overview” from HackerNoon offers, the author discusses the implications of copyright laws in the context of AI, focusing on whether AI can be considered an author of creative works, and how this impacts the rights of those who use AI to create content.

The article provides a clear overview of the current state of copyright law as it pertains to AI. Traditionally, copyright laws have protected works created by human authors, but with the rise of AI-generated content, it led me to ask: “can an AI be considered an author in its own right, or does the copyright belong to the human who programmed the AI, or the user who directed its output?” I learned that, under current law, AI cannot be considered an author in its own right, and the copyright typically belongs to the human creator or the user of the AI. This reflects a fundamental principle that we explore in our class, especially when considering software licenses. For example, when choosing a license for a software project, it is essential to understand the ownership of contributions and the rights of the contributors.

I selected this resource because the legal implications of AI are an area of particular interest to me, especially as AI continues to grow in influence and application across various industries. In one of my other classes, Computing Ethics, we talked about the ethical responsibilities and legal dilemmas surrounding the use of AI. The context being medical fields or business, how would the use of AI affect the users using it. This article connects those themes by highlighting the legal aspects of AI usage and authorship, which I had not fully considered before. It helped me understand that as AI technology becomes more sophisticated, the law may need to adapt to address new challenges.

By exploring “Copyrights in AI: Legal Overview” and reflecting on the licensing aspects discussed in my homework, I have gained a deeper understanding of how AI-related legal issues intersect with software licensing. In our Copyright and Licensing Homework, we focus on understanding different licensing models and the implications they have on the use and distribution of software so understanding who owns the rights to AI-generated works is critical to deciding how those works can be shared, modified, or distributed.

I expect to apply this knowledge when working with software projects, ensuring that the terms and conditions of any AI tools or systems used are clearly defined. As AI continues to grow in capabilities and its integration into software development increases, I believe this knowledge will be essential to navigating the complex legal landscape.

Code Security First: Tackling CVEs in Your Development Workflow

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) are publicly disclosed security flaws that pose a significant risk to software systems. These vulnerabilities, if left unchecked, can be exploited by malicious actors. Developers, therefore, play a critical role in defending their code against known CVEs, ensuring secure software development from the very first commit. The article “Defending Your Commits from Known CVEs” explores a tool that developers can use to safeguard their work, integrating security seamlessly into the development lifecycle. This blog post reflects on the key insights from the resource, what I’ve learned, and how I plan to apply these practices in my future as a software professional.

The article emphasizes the prevalence of open-source components in modern projects and warns about how these components can add vulnerabilities to your project. This article particularly stresses the use of the tool Git Guardian Software Composition Analysis to catch CVE’s before they are added in a commit. Git Guardian SCA is a vulnerability scanner made by Hacker News to catch risks early.

I selected this article because it connects directly to our course discussions on open-source development and using Git. Understanding how to mitigate CVE risks is essential in order for us to be modern developers, and this article provides a useful tool to enable us towards this goal. It also touches on the use of open-source software.

From this article I learned that the open-source movement has a profound place in current development. It blows my mind that 96% of current projects have open-source components and that anywhere from 70% to 90% of any given modern software is open-source components. I don’t know if I should be happy that the world is working together so much or sad that apparently a lot of software development is not as much coding as I initially thought. It also explained how you can automate the tool’s use with Git hooks which was a new resource that I was introduced to. It allows the developer to automatically trigger actions at different points of gits execution.

Going forward I will be much more vigilant in using any piece of open-source software since apparently a large number of those projects could be using CVE’s. I will also try to expand this vigilance to the rest of any future teams I am a part of. I will probably also look into making my own tools to integrate with git hooks.

Docker and it basics

    Since I use different
computers from home, class, and work, after learning from class about docker
and setting up the same environment for all the devices, I thought it was time
to look into docker more. The article is about what is docker, why it became
popular and comparing it with other tools. That is why I choose this article
because “Docker overview” by Marsdev gives comprehensive introduction about docker,
comparing to virtual machine, use cases and advantage over other tools over the
internet. It clearly explains these things easily and detailed make it ideal
choice to learn how docker works and its benefits.

    The article covers essential components of Docker including
Docker Engine, Images, Dockerfiles, Docker Hub, Volumes, Compose, and Desktop
and how they work. For example, Docker Engine serves as the backbone of the
platform, enabling the creation and management of containers, while Docker
Compose allows developers to manage multiple interconnected containers with
ease. Not only that, but it also compares other tools that have similar functions
like Jenkins, Kubernetes. Not only that this article summarizes how container are
“given resources that no other process can access and cannot access any
resources that have not been specifically allotted to them”. In the end, Docker
is a powerful tool that makes development processes faster and build, test and publish
apps faster and efficiently than before.

Reading this article
and idea of ‘container’ showed why docker became a powerful tool for environmental
consistency. Also, I learned that I could have the same development environment
in different devices and applications now after installing docker, I don’t have
to constantly upgrade and downgrade versions of angular, node.js and different
things between different computers, applications. It was a pain going back and
forth and just a single program solves that mess I had. This program gave me a
clear roadmap for implementing containerization in my own work.  This article decreased the time I had to use
for development workflow compared to before. Not only that, but I am also
trying to use different dockers extension mentioned in the blog and others in
the marketplace for future use. Extensions like Disk usage help me double check
resource usage during development too. In the end, docker will save me time
during development and expand my base as a programmer as it decrease level of
errors between different versions of my program and the time to find those
errors.
