This article explores the implications of the advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the protection of intellectual property and copyrights. Although AI is capable of generating results autonomously, current laws still focus on human intervention in the creative process. The author discusses the distinctions between Computer Assisted Works and Computer-Generated Works, raising the question of who would be the author of a work generated automatically by AI. While legal protection for AI-generated results is limited, the article suggests that it is important to discuss the issue for the future development of intellectual property legislation. The protection of intellectual property in AI is a complex and constantly evolving topic, and it is essential for companies, policymakers, and society at large to be aware of changes to ensure the protection of copyright and promote the development of AI.
