邻接权视角下的人工智能创作物版权保护模式

The Copyright Protection Mode of Artificial Intelligence Creationfrom the Perspective of Neighboring Right

人工智能创作作品的时代已经来临。对于人工智能创作物的保护,要从广义的版权法概念,即著作权和邻接权的分野的角度进行考虑。人工智能本身成为权利主体尚未得到各国认可,且需要在民法上先进行变革。人工智能所有者和使用者对作品的创作未作出智力贡献,不应享有作者权。邻接权制度是大陆法系国家的制度,邻接权的核心是保护对作品的投资,而非保护对作品的利用和传播。可以通过创设一类新的邻接权用于保护人工智能创作物,这类邻接权没有人格权内容,保护期限也需相应缩短。

The era of artificial intelligence（AI） creating works has come. For the protection of AI creations,we should consider the broad concept of copyright law,that is,the division of author＇s right and neighboring right. AI itself has not been approved as subject of rights by most countries and this needs to be changed first in civil law. AI owners and users do not make intelligence contributions to AI creation and should not enjoy author＇s rights. The neighboring right is a system of civil law countries. The core of neighboring right is to protect the investment in works,not the use and dissemination of works. It is possible to create a new type of neighboring right for the protection of AI creations. Such kind of neighboring right does not have the right of personality,and the term of protection should be shortened correspondingly.
