Abstract

This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the challenges facing traditional legal frameworks of intellectual property in light of the rapid development of generative artificial intelligence systems. It highlights the inadequacy of the concepts of originality and human authorship in accommodating the outputs of these systems and reviews recent judicial examples and administrative decisions that confirm the current laws were not designed to frame the creative works produced by machines. The research seeks to propose alternative regulatory mechanisms and legislative solutions to reshape the legal frameworks, including standards for ownership ratios based on the degree of human intervention, mandatory licences for training data, and conditional protection for human-supported outputs. The research ends by asking for a fair global law system that supports new ideas while also protecting rights, suggesting clear and straightforward rules to make sure generative artificial intelligence systems are managed ethically and transparently.
