The Right to Authorship in AI generated works

In the era dominated by digital platforms, knowledge workers grapple with challenges concerning the value of their work, copyright, distribution, and authorship. Urgent questions arise on the devaluation of human creative work through AI interventions and the lack of harmonization in the meaning of authorship under copyright laws across different jurisdictions. How do existing legal frameworks adapt to the nuances of AI-generated content, and to what extent do they safeguard the integrity and dignity of human-authored works and value? As AI contributes to creative processes, who holds authorship and subsequently ownership in generative works, and how can this be reconciled with traditional notions of creativity and intellectual property? What do we understand by creativity in a work environment where artificial and human intelligence are increasingly integrated. This paper responds to these questions. The primary focus lies in navigating the intricacies of AI-generated work versus human-generated work, especially considering the complexities of authorship within UK, EU, and US legal frameworks.<p></p>
