1️⃣ Copyright Office Finally Clarifies AI Rules 📜 

Simply prompting AI? No copyright for you

Significant human modification required

Three paths to copyright:

  • Heavy modification of AI output

  • Mixing your original work with AI content

  • Adding substantial creative contributions

Using AI for editing/refining doesn't disqualify you

Why it matters: Humans still need to bring something to the table

Ask Flip how they're doing and they'll probably say...

Business is booming: The video shopping platform is experiencing a massive surge thanks to the TikTok ban, with numbers that would make most startups drool:

  • 250k+ new users have flooded in

  • Brand applications jumped from 150 to 700 per month

  • Growth so explosive they had to temporarily pause signups

Meanwhile, in the Meta-verse: The company's AI assistant just got a memory upgrade that could change the game for advertisers.

And speaking of Meta... WhatsApp just solved a major headache for business users:

Multiple account support has finally graduated from beta and is available for TestFlight iOS users. No more juggling between personal and business apps.

What it means for marketers: While everyone's distracted by the AI wars, there's a major reshuffling happening in social commerce. Flip's sudden growth suggests users (and brands) are quickly adapting to life after TikTok. If you're not exploring these emerging platforms, you might be leaving money on the table.

Want our advice? Keep an eye on Flip's brand application process – with 700 monthly applications, the competition's heating up fast.
