An artist who infamously duped an art contest with an AI image is suing the U.S. Copyright Office over its refusal to register the image’s copyright.

In the lawsuit, Jason M. Allen asks a Colorado federal court to reverse the Copyright Office’s decision on his artwork Theatre D’opera Spatialbecause it was an expression of his creativity.

Reuters says the Copyright Office refused to comment on the case while Allen in a statement complains that the office’s decision “put me in a terrible position, with no recourse against others who are blatantly and repeatedly stealing my work.”

      What an asshole. You inserted yourself into this convo, in a fucking obnoxious way, insult me throughout and then you bitch out when you get called out. Yeah, fuck right off and don’t bother me again unless you’ve got something actually worthwhile to say.

        I’m an asshole because I won’t argue with you?

        Serially man. Go find something to do. I made my point. I’m not going to apologize that it upset you to the point that you became insulting and childish.

          You really that oblivious to your own actions?

          • You butted yourself into this discussion by literally spamming me. Asshole behavior.
          • You then insulted me every chance you get. Asshole behavior.
          • You then act like I strawmanned your argument. Disrespectful behavior.
          • You literally said someone is not a musician if they’re too lazy to play an instrument. Asshole behavior.
          • And your whole argument is about trying to dictate what is or isn’t art which by nature is asshole behavior.

          Your decision to not argue with me has had no impact on you being an asshole, you were one before and you’ll continue being one afterwards.

            You’re defending using AI, I disagreed. That’s what this is bud. People discuss shit. People post their opinions. People disagree. That’s how it works. But If you don’t like how it works, and it’s clear that you don’t, I suggest you leave it so the people that do can discuss things. Even if they don’t agree completely or at all.

            And for the record….

            You’ve been a petulant child throughout this entire discussion- all because you don’t like my opinion. You’ve even resorted to ad hominem. Childish I tell ya! 😆

            Yet you have been free to walk away from it any time you wish. I even told you to take a hike a few times but you keep coming back to play the victim even further.

            If you don’t like my words, don’t read them. Just like how I have all AI based bullshit communities filtered out so I don’t have to interact with it.

            It’s. just. That. Simple.

            Walk away. That’s all you have to do….

            Just… walk away.

              You got the amount of respect you showed. If I’m a “petulant child” it’s because you were a “petulant child” before. And I didn’t even know your opinion before you started chirping. This entire discussion exists solely because you don’t like my opinion. You started this shit.

              Yet you have been free to walk away from it any time you wish. I even told you to take a hike a few times but you keep coming back to play the victim even further.

              You’re the one who said goodbye and now keep coming back. Take your own advice moron.

              If you don’t like my words, don’t read them. Just like how I have all AI based bullshit communities filtered out so I don’t have to interact with it.

              If you don’t like people talking back to you, don’t start shit with people.
