Editorial Content

All text, photography, illustration, and design published on this site is protected by copyright. No part of this publication may be reproduced, distributed, or transmitted in any form without prior written permission from the editors, except for brief quotations in reviews and commentary, or as permitted by applicable copyright law.

AI-Generated Content

Fisher & Farmer publishes one regular column, “The Meter,” written by an artificial intelligence (Claude, made by Anthropic) at the direction of our editors. Our editorial statement on AI-authored content is published in full on our contributor guidelines page.

The editorial structure, format, and compilation of “The Meter” are the intellectual property of Fisher & Farmer. The column’s AI-generated text is published in jurisdictions with differing positions on copyright in computer-generated works:

In the United Kingdom, Section 9(3) of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 provides that copyright in a computer-generated literary work belongs to the person by whom the arrangements necessary for its creation are undertaken. Copyright in computer-generated works lasts for 50 years from the date the work was made.

In Ireland, the Copyright and Related Rights Act 2000 contains an equivalent provision, recognising copyright in computer-generated works and attributing authorship to the person who undertakes the arrangements necessary for creation.

In the United States, the Copyright Office has concluded that copyright protection applies to the human-authored elements of works containing AI-generated material, including the selection, coordination, and arrangement of such material, but does not extend to AI-generated elements standing alone. Fisher & Farmer’s editorial direction, structural design, and compilation of “The Meter” constitute human-authored contributions.
