ABSTRACT:
AI-generated work presents several challenges in the domain of copyright, raising questions about authorship, ownership, and legal protection. One of the primary concerns is the identification of authorship, as AI systems lack legal personality, making it difficult to assign copyright to an AI-generated work. This leads to ambiguity over who holds the rights—the developer, the user, or the AI itself. Additionally, traditional copyright laws, which are designed to protect human creators, struggle to adapt to AI's role in content creation. The issue of originality also arises, as AI often generates work by learning from existing copyrighted materials, potentially infringing on intellectual property rights. Moreover, the evolving nature of AI technology requires constant updates to legal frameworks to address new forms of creation. As AI continues to shape the creative landscape, these challenges necessitate ongoing dialogue and legal reform to ensure fair protection for both human and AI-generated works.
Keywords: AI, copyright, authorship, ownership, intellectual property, originality, legal reform.
