利益衡量视域下人工智能生成内容的邻接权保护

On the Protection of Neighbouring Rights of Artificial Intelligence Generated Content under the Measurement of Interest Perspective

对人工智能生成内容保护与否、如何保护的争论,本质上是对既有利益如何协调的讨论。化解人工智能生成内容带来的利益冲突,需从人工智能运行的底层逻辑出发,以利益分析为主线,审视著作权法保护的条件。人工智能生成内容符合广义邻接权的保护要求。但现有邻接权制度无法对人工智能生成内容提供保护,邻接权制度需进行一定的扩张,结合人工智能生成内容的特性和关联的利益,宜新设“生成式信息使用者权”,并对权利主体、具体保护条件、权利行使限制等方面进行明确。

The debate on whether and how to protect AI-generated content is essentially a discussion of how to harmonize established interests.To resolve the conflict of interests brought about by AI-generated content,it is necessary to start from the underlying logic of the operation of AI,and to examine the conditions of protection under the copyright law with the analysis of interests as the main line.Artificial intelligence-generated content meets the protection requirements of broad neighboring rights.Existing neighboring rights system cannot provide protection for AI-generated content.The system of neighboring rights shall be expanded to a certain extent,and it is appropriate to establish a new“user's right to generate information”,taking into account the characteristics of the content generated by artificial intelligence and the interests associated with it.It needs to be clarified in terms of the subject of the right,the specific conditions of protection,and the limitations on the exercise of the right.
