著作权法视域下人工智能生成物的可版权性与权利归属问题分析

Analysis of Copyrightability and Rights Attribution of Artificial Intelligence Products under the Perspective of Copyright Law

人工智能技术的逐步成熟,使得人工智能生成物在市场上不断涌现,给现行的著作权法制度提出了新的挑战。对于人工智能生成物是否具有可版权性以及其权利归属问题,是当前学界争论的热点和难点。本文认为人工智能生成物可版权性的认定,应当采用独创性判断的客观标准,将符合作品形式外观的人工智能生成物纳入著作权法的保护范畴。与此同时,本文通过比较分析学界关于人工智能“法律人格拟制说“”投资者说“”使用者说“”邻接权保护说”和“设计者说”等观点,结合劳动财产理论,认为应当将人工智能生成物的权利划归于作出实质性贡献的设计者,以实现著作权法激励创新的立法目的。

The gradual maturity of artificial intelligence technology has made artificial intelligence products continue to emerge in the market, posing new challenges to the current copyright law system. Whether artificial intelligence-generated products are copyrightable and the ownership of their rights is a hot and difficult point in the current academic debate. This paper argues that the determination of the copyrightability of artificial intelligence generated products should adopt the objective criteria of originality judgment, and the artificial intelligence generated objects that conform to the form and appearance of works should be included in the protection scope of the Copyright Law. At the same time, through the comparative analysis of the“legal personality fiction theory”“investor theory”“user theory”“neighboring rights protection theory”and“designer theory”of artificial intelligence in the field of comparative analysis, combined with labor property theory, this paper argues that The rights of AI-generated products should be assigned to designers who have made substantial contributions in order to achieve the legislative purpose of copyright law to stimulate innovation.
