This study examines the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on intellectual property (IP) frameworks, with a particular focus on copyright and patent law It highlights the challenges posed by AI-generated content to traditional definitions of authorship, which focus on human creativity. The evolution of AI blurs the lines between human and machine creativity, raising questions about ownership and inventorship, particularly concerning the patentability of AI-driven innovations. The study addresses legal and ethical dilemmas surrounding ownership and liability for AI-generated works, questioning the adequacy of existing IP laws. Using case studies and global regulatory analysis, it reveals the limitations of current intellectual property frameworks in the context of AI innovation. The research concludes with discussions on necessary reforms and policy adjustments to align IP law with advancements in AI technology, ensuring protection for human creators alongside machine-generated innovations. Rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) are challenging traditional intellectual property (IP) law, particularly in the domains of copyright and patent. This study examines how AI-generated works and autonomous inventions complicate legal concepts such as authorship and ownership. It highlights discrepancies between current IP frameworks and the realities of AI-driven innovation, alongside issues of liability, infringement, and training data protection. The research argues for adaptive legal reforms to prevent traditional IP regimes from becoming ineffective, advocating for flexible, technology-neutral approaches to ensure IP law remains effective and fair in the context of AI advancements.
