Artificial Intelligence has experienced significant advancements in recent years, leading to the emergence of diverse regulatory frameworks. The proliferation of AI and daily life has amplified over time, underscoring the necessity for regulation at both national and international levels. The primary objective of these regulations is to safeguard social welfare and uphold individual rights as enshrined in constitutions and fundamental human rights. Furthermore, the implications of AI extend to various other legal domains, necessitating comprehensive regulatory measures.

Data Protection and Artificial Intelligence.[edit]

In response to the rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the fourth industrial revolution, the European Commission has initiated a plan for the internal market. This plan outlines missions aimed at benefiting society, the economy, and the environment. These missions have been entrusted to Sylvie Goulard, the designated commissioner for the internal market. Her five year mission is to establish a suitable framework that allows Europe to transition to digital media while ensuring the respect of values as new technologies evolve.[1]

The plan further details efforts to enhance Europe's technological sovereignty. This involves the development and introduction of new technologies that define new standards. Consideration has been given to cybersecurity certificates, along with the implementation of new rules and strategies to protect the European Union. A key component of this plan is the establishment of a coordinated European approach on Artificial Intelligence and the new Digital Services Law.[2]

These measures have been influenced by past events involving the use of algorithms in the public sphere, such as for commercial purposes or even for candidate selection for higher education[3]. These algorithms, which are on the cusp of evolving into AI, have led legal to changes in some countries, such as France.[4]

The plan underscores the importance of data protection, particularly in the context of Big Data, which is crucial for the operation and functionality, of AI. This has led to the creation of respective laws at both national and international levels to regulate AI and data usage.

Intellectual Property and Artificial Intelligence.[edit]

The advent of advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems, such as Dall-E, Google AI, Nvidia 's DLSS 3, has led to the potential creation of copyrighted material, registrable designs, and even patentable inventions. These AI systems have found applications in various fields, including marketing.

In response to these developments, the International Intellectual Property Organization ( WIPO ) proposed a regulation to the European Parliament and the Council titled "Establishing Harmonized Rules Regarding Artificial Intelligence (Artificial Intelligence Law) and Amending Certain Union Legislative Acts.[5]

This regulation contains several sections that elucidate the objectives of these laws and their application within the European Union. Key definitions provided in the regulation include:

  • Artificial intelligence system (AI system): A software developed using one or more techniques and strategies listed in Annex I. This software can generate content, predictions, recommendations or decisions that influence the environments it interacts with, based on a set of human-defined objectives.[6].
  • User: Any natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body that uses an AI system under its own authority, excluding non-professional personal activities.[7]
  • Operator: The supplier, user, the authorized representative, importer and distributor."[8]

The regulation also emphasizes transparency obligations for certain AI systems. Specifically, users of an AI system that generates or manipulates image, sound or video content resembling existing entities or events (known as deepfakes) must discolse that the content has been artificially generated or manipulated.[9]

These regulations provide a comprehensive framework for future AI regulation in the field of intellectual property.
