Copyright Regulation of Artificial Intelligence Generated Graphs

Abstract

With the profound advancement of AI algorithmic models, AI generators have progressively found applications across diverse industries. Nevertheless, this development has presented new challenges to legislation and judicial determinations concerning copyright and related matters. There remains no definitive conclusion on whether AI-generated works can be considered original or fall within the scope of copyright law, nor whether they are eligible for copyright protection. However, a thorough analysis of current domestic and international legislation and judicial precedents suggests that copyright protection should indeed be extended to AI-generated creations. This is supported by the fact that artificial intelligence models fundamentally serve as tools to aid human creativity, lacking autonomous will and primarily relying on human data analysis, compilation, and integration as a basis for creation. Therefore, even though the process of artificial intelligence creation may ultimately reflect the original thought and personalized expression of humans, it is essential to consider granting copyright protection to AI-generated content.
