A Multidisciplinary Approach to KIIT Horizons, Volume 1

This book explores the effects of Artificial Intelligence (AI) across different disciplines. As AI applications continue to progress, serious concerns arise about effectively protecting the copyright of items they produce. Each country views AI as an author while maintaining rights differently, resulting in the compelling necessity for an international dialogue on legal standards. The present copyright framework does not provide sufficient solutions for AI authorship intricacies and raises doubts about classic notions of invention and source. The distinctions show an increasing demand for a global legal system that can address the unique characteristics of AI-generated content. Investigating legal policies for AI-created works underscores the critical demand for a copyright approach that accounts for human involvement. Recognizing the actual owner and the original creator is complicated when AI operates with substantial control. Present statutes fail to clarify the complexities linked to human artistic contributions. The rationale behind developing a single system is based on valuing AI-produced material as a unique category of intellectual property. As AI becomes more significant in creative fields, legal dialogues must also be similarly enhanced. The approaches considered in the book strive to build improved regulations that represent the progress in AI technology and the basic concepts of copyright. The book goes on to propose a consistent policy model to confront AI obstacles related to intellectual property and would be a valuable read for policy makers and AI enthusiasts alike.
