Intellectual property (IP) is commonly described as encompassing a broad range of 'creations of the mind' - raising the obvious question about whether and when generative AI output can be protected under IP regimes, in particular copyright. Next to the issue of copyright protection for AI-generated and AI-assisted output, perhaps more important questions concern who is liable if such output potentially infringes other's IP? And underlying these questions are concerns about the impact of AI on (human) creation and creativity, as well as those over equitable benefit-sharing for the use of (so far primarily) 'human-generated' content for AI development.
