ARTIFICIAL INTELLECTUAL AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS: A LEGAL ANALYSIS OF COPYRIGHT, PATENT, AND LIABILITY IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Keywords:
Artificial Intelligence, Copyright, Patent, Intellectual Property Rights, Legal Liability.Abstract
The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has significant consequences for the Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) system, particularly regarding the status of copyright ownership, patents, and legal liability for works or inventions generated by machines. AI, which is technically capable of creating creative works and producing technical innovations, breaks the classical IPR paradigm that always requires the existence of a human as the creator or inventor. This research uses a normative juridical approach to analyse how the Indonesian IPR regime responds to this phenomenon, to what extent existing laws can accommodate AI-based works, and how international doctrines discuss issues of authorship, inventorship, and liability. The results show that Indonesian IPR law is still based on an anthropocentric paradigm, thus it is not yet able to address the issues of AI Copyright, AI-generated patents, and IPR violations that occur due to the use of copyrighted training data. Regulatory reform, classification of AI-based work status, and the establishment of liability standards are needed to create legal certainty in the age of artificial intelligence.
