- Can a work generated by artificial intelligence (AI) be protected by law in terms of its author rights? If so, who would be the rightful holder of such rights? In the article “Law on protection of author rights in works generated by Artificial Intelligence”, Lawyer Le Quang Vy, Partner of GV Lawyers will analyze the legal aspects of protecting works, especially works created by AI, to point out that the laws of Vietnam and some countries have not yet recognized the protection of works created by AI as the protection of works created by humans. From there, the author believes that building a legal framework on intellectual property for AI is extremely urgent in the context of AI being a core technology.
