Generative Ai and Copyright: Who Owns The “Author” And How to Protect Rights?

Artificial intelligence has revolutionized the world of creativity, as it has in many other fields. This has also raised several legal issues related to intellectual property and copyright, due to the ability of AI systems to generate original content, sometimes without any human intervention. Can creations and innovations generated by generative artificial intelligence be classified as "intellectual works" subject to legal protection? Who is entitled to the title of "author" for content created using artificial intelligence, or even for content created through a combination of human work and artificial intelligence techniques? These are the most important questions raised by the theme of artificial intelligence in the field of intellectual property, which we will attempt to discuss in this research paper, drawing on the perspectives of comparative jurisprudence in the absence of legal texts detailing these issues.
