Abstract

In the modern artificial technology era, Copyright law plays an important role in giving protection to the original work of the authors, shaping the creation and distribution of intellectual works.  It is the type of intellectual property, which works as a shield for the creative work. As the technologies evolve, protection to such works has become difficult because of the involvement of Artificial intelligence generated work. Content has been created in bulk, and it is difficult for the traditional copyright law to identify who is the original owner of the work. The current laws of copyright also lack provisions for the identification of the work generated by AI. This study has been conducted using qualitative analysis to find out the answers to such questions and challenges. A comparative analysis of the China and USA judgments has been made in it. The study has highlighted the major similarities and differences in these two different cases and has also shown that how it will impact the AI industry. Policy recommendations have been given, to address the challenge of AI-generated content and copyright protection to it.
