Sneh Pandey, Research Scholar, Nehru Gram Bharti (Deemed University), Prayagraj
ABSTRACT
The development of generative artificial intelligence presents a test case to the fundamental assumption of copyright law, which is that authorship is necessarily human. In a situation whereby the person is involved in initiating, selecting, curating, and organizing the output generated by the machine, the problem facing the copyright authorities is that of the adequacy of human intervention in a process involving AI in order to be able to meet the requirement of originality for copyright protection. This paper seeks to address the issue of originality in copyright under the two legal systems of common law and civil law, and the different approaches applied in the U.S., UK, India, and EU concerning this problem.
