Artificial Intelligence (AI) represents a very significant challenge to copyright law’s ability to adapt and change to new technologies. Whilst in the past copyright has been able to accommodate new developments within its technological environment, none of those changes have ever challenged the idea of human authorship. The technological capabilities of AI are now developing to a point where machine-driven creativity could ultimately present a very significant threat to the viability of copyright law. Technologies such as Google’s Deep Dream and The Next Rembrandt have highlighted the possibilities around AI and creativity. These recent developments have built past AI innovations such as the e-David project. The fundamental problem is simple, though the issues raised by the suite of solutions on offer are exceedingly complex. AI technologies have the capacity to create complex works within which copyright would easily exist if they were produced by a human author. However, the absence of a human author places them beyond the realm of copyright law in most jurisdictions. As the technology develops it will become harder to deny copyright protection to AI works. However, allowing AI into the arena of copyright law is likely to lead to a radical reconfiguration of the law of copyright and the industries that depend upon it.This paper explores whether the rules of authorship and ownership within copyright law can expand to include ownership over AI-created works.
