Title
Artificial Intelligence’s Impacts on Artistic Creativity: A Clash between Copyright and Public Domain Approaches

 

Abstract
Recent advances in artificial intelligence technologies have brought several challenges to artistic creativity and copyright law. What will be their impacts on the production of new literary and artistic works? Will humans be able to compete with computers? Will the works generated by computers influence in any way the works created by humans? Can and should copyright law protect the works produced by the technologies employing artificial intelligence? This Presentation will attempt to address such questions and to shed some light on controversies and conundrums brought by artificial intelligence to the domain of the production of literary and artistic works.
