2026-08-23 / SOURCESMunich Local Court Holds AI-Generated Logos Get No Copyright, and Prompting or Picking From Suggestions Is Not Human Creative ContributionA widely shared August 20 thread collects the current EU position: content generated entirely by AI is not protected by copyright, because EU copyright law rests on a strictly human-centric foundation, and a Munich Local Court ruling found that neither prompting nor selecting among several AI outputs clears the bar for human creative contribution. Vanderbilt's Daniel Gervais frames the asymmetry bluntly, saying that putting your name on a ChatGPT- or Claude-written article is a provenance mark that gives you liability for the content without giving you copyright in it. For anyone shipping AI-assisted logos, marketing assets, or written content into the EU, the practical consequence is that the output may be unprotectable while you remain on the hook for it.
