When Code Creates: A landscape report on issues at the intersection of AI and IP Law

Rapid advancement in artificial intelligence (AI), and the mass uptake of generative AI in the past year, are raising a number of issues at the interface with intellectual property (IP) law—including some that go to the heart of the conceptual framework underlying IP, which matured in the early modern period in a very different technological context. This Landscape Report (Report) offers a comparative study of the global landscape, surveying recent developments and presenting an illustrative view of the evolving approach of the major legal systems on key issues such as the recognition of AI systems in inventorship and authorship, the impact of AI-generated creations on traditional IP categories, and the evolving nature of IP infringement in the age of AI.
