THE AUTHORSHIP DILEMMA: DETERMINING OWNERSHIP OF AI-GENERATED CONTENT UNDER INDIAN COPYRIGHT LAW
Abstract
Abstract
With the emergence of artificial
intelligence technologies which have the capacity to create literary, artistic,
musical and any other creative work, copyright law made under the assumption of
human authorship is now in disarray. The present study attempts to examine the
problem of authorship under copyright law in India with reference to the
creative works created entirely or mainly through artificial intelligence
technologies. The paper examines how the computer generated works are legally
dealt with under Section 2(d)(vi) of the Copyright Act, 1957 and analyses this
provision within the context of the principle of originality defined
comprehensively by Indian judiciary. The study conducts the comparative
analysis of the views of UK, US and European Union on the problem of authorship
of computer generated works in order to develop the doctrinal framework which
may help to reform the existing position in India.
