Journal of Emerging Trends in Educational Research and Policy Studies (JETERAPS) (Vol 1 No 1)
| Abstract: As Artificial Intelligence (AI) becomes more integral to various industries, including creative and inventive processes, it is essential to reassess and reform intellectual property (IP) laws to address the evolving technological landscape. Traditional IP systems are grounded in human authorship and ownership, yet AI's ability to autonomously generate creative and inventive outputs calls for new models of attribution and ownership. Several proposed models—AI system ownership, programmer ownership, user ownership, company ownership, and public domain—are evaluated, with their challenges. Adopting doctrinal approach, this paper explores the challenges and ethical considerations surrounding AI-generated works and the implications for existing IP frameworks. It advocates for a hybrid ownership model, introducing the Artificial Intelligence Legal Entity (AiLE) concept, a new legal construct designed to represent the interests of all stakeholders in AI-generated works, including developers, users, and corporations. This framework would distribute intellectual property rights, profits, and liabilities fairly, ensuring that no single entity monopolizes the benefits of AI-generated content. By treating AI as a legal entity, the paper finds that AiLE model provides a balanced approach to addressing the complexities of ownership, accountability, and transparency in the AI ecosystem. The paper highlights the need for reform in both patent and copyright laws to formally recognize AI's role in the creation process. It proposes the introduction of new patent classifications and the inclusion of AI as a potential author in copyright law, with protection assessed on a case-by-case basis. The paper asserts that ethical considerations, such as fairness and the equitable distribution of benefits, must guide these reforms to ensure that AI’s advancements serve the public good while safeguarding human creators' rights. In contributing to knowledge, the paper stresses the importance of evolving IP laws parallel to AI technology to maintain fairness, foster innovation, and protect human creators in the digital age. |
