Who owns the copyright of the novel created by AI?
At present, China's copyright law has no clear provisions on the protection of AI products. The copyright of AI generated content belongs to the developer of AI technology or the actual user. There is still a dispute, waiting for clear guidance from the legal and policy levels. Judging from the existing litigation cases at home and abroad, the most commonly thought of judgments had appeared. The copyright belonged to the creator, the big model (that is, the copyright could not be granted), and the party who trained the big model. The executive vice president and director general of the China Character copyright association believed that artificial intelligence products without deep human participation should not have copyright; if people input subjective ideas and generate original content that reflects the subjective will of humans, they belong to the works stipulated by the copyright law and should be protected by copyright. The U.S. copyright office clearly stated in its copyright registration manual that copyright law only protected human creations, not machines or products of natural processes. If the AI works were created independently by the AI system, then these works were not protected by copyright; if the AI works were created under the guidance and control of humans, then the copyright of these works should belong to humans. For example, in 2016, an artist used AI to create a novel. Because he guided and controlled the programming and operation of the AI system, the copyright of the novel belonged to him.
