Legal protection of works generated by artificial intelligence systems: the experience of the EU, the UK and the US
Journal Title: Часопис Київського університету права - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
The article deals with legal protection of works generated by artificial intelligence systems. On the basis of analyzing the situation in the EU, the UK and the US, it is stated that original works resulting from the author’s independent intellectual activity are recognized as copyrightable. That is, the original work has to reflect the author’s creative individuality, to be a prerequisite for recognizing the existence of a copyrightable work. Currently there are no countries where the issue of ensuring legal protection and being entitled to the rights of potentially copyrightable objects generated by artificial intelligence systems is properly regulated at the legislative level. The existing legal constructions, even in countries such as the UK and some other states of the Commonwealth of Nations, that were an attempt to resolve these issues at the legislative level, do not correspond to the current level and prospects for the development of artificial intelligence technologies and do not allow to solve the mentioned problem aspects clearly and unambiguously. At the same time, the machines’ ability to generate autonomously potentially copyrightable works gives rise to the debate around the world concerning the need to revise traditional standards of copyright protection, taking into account the development of artificial intelligence technologies.
