人工智能创作物著作权认定研究

Research on Copyright Identification of Artificial Intelligence Creations

人工智能已经成为人类主体之外新的“作品”来源,根据其创作过程是否完全独立于人类,可将人工智能创作物划分为第一类人工智能创作物与第二类人工智能创作物。从作品构成要件与客观主义的角度分析,人工智能创作物应当被认定为作品,且应设立人工智能作品作为新的作品类别。若拒绝人工智能创作物进入版权保护体系,会导致“僭称作品”和“公地危机”,不利于版权市场的稳定与繁荣,而版权法体系对其接纳留有空间。从权属问题而言,现有制度与社会伦理都难以接受人工智能成为权利主体,应运用“视为作者”制度拟制人工智能使用者成为“法律作者”与“著作权人”,并建立作品登记制度。

AI is a new source of works apart from human.According to whether it creatives process is completely independent of human beings,AI can be divided into the first kind of artificial intelligence works and the second kind of artificial intelligence works.From the perspective of composition elements and objectivism,artificial intelligence works should be recognized as works,and artificial intelligence works should be regarded as a new category of works.Refusing artificial intelligence creations to enter the copyright protection system will lead to unauthorized works and common crisis,which are not conducive to the stability and prosperity of the copyright market,and the copyright law system leaves room for its acceptance.As far as ownership is concerned,it is difficult for the existing system and social ethics to accept artificial intelligence as the subject of rights.The system of“being regarded as the author”is used to make artificial intelligence users become“legal authors”and“copyright owners”,and a work registration system should be established to better maintain the stability of the copyright market.
