著作权的调适与高技术的发展历来相伴而行,认可人工智能生成内容的可版权性是回应人工智能技术进步的需要、扩大作品构成要件理论适用性的需要、增强著作权制度法律价值的需要.承认算法创作不会破坏主客体不得互换的私法基础,也不会冲击著作权主体理论,并且符合著作权去人格化的哲学逻辑、作品创作与归属可分离的法律逻辑、作品商品化的经济逻辑.对于构成作品的人工智能生成内容,可遵循创作主体资格与权利主体资格界分的思路,将人工智能的使用者作为其生成内容著作权的原始权利人,从反向排除要件、正向构成要件、形式说明要件三个层次设定使用者享有著作权的基本条件.
An Analysis of the Copyrightability of AI-Generated Content
The adjustment of copyright has always been accompanied by the development of high technology.The development of artificial intelligence(AI),represented by ChatGPT and GPT-4,has brought great challenges to the copyright law system.Around issues such as the copyright of AI-generated content and the need to revise the criteria for originality,scholars have had a debate from different starting points and research frameworks,and formed completely different points of view.There is an urgent need to clarify the copyright rules,value orientation and coping strategies behind those technologies.As for the legitimacy of empowerment of AI-generated content,the paper believes that AI is not so much of a tool and it has further got rid of human arrangement.AI has directly intervened in the field of creation that was previously thought to belong exclusively to human beings,and can create algorithms independently and randomly to generate content that looks no different from ordinary works.In terms of originality,AI-generated content still falls within the framework of copyright law about protecting the expression of human thoughts and emotions,and it can meet the standard of independent completion and minimum creativity.As an important legal system for safeguarding the achievements of scientific and technological development,copyright law needs to respond to the iterative needs of AI,carry forward the ethical orientation of Tech for Good,and recognize the differences between algorithm-based creation and human creation.Copyright law should prioritize the protection of readers'reliance interest in the appearance of AI-generated content,thus promoting the future development and transformation of AI.As for the evaluation standard of the consistency of subject and object,the paper holds that the identification of the works and the recognition of the subject belong to different dimensions.However,this does not conflict with the principle of private law that subject and object cannot be interchangeable.In the context of reader-centrism,the works as the object and the right holder as the subject can be appropriately separated.The works are not a natural extension of the author's personality,and who the author is no longer affects the judgment on whether it constitutes the expression of ideas and originality.The theory of legal fiction provides a realistic example for the dichotomy of work creation and ownership,and the commercialization trend of works accelerates the process of separate evaluation of works and right holders.As for the arrangement of the right ownership of AI-generated content,it cannot impact the subject structure of the copyright and will not make AI the subject of civil law.In the case that AI-generated content constitutes works,we can still follow the idea of dividing the qualification of the creative subject and the qualification of the right holder.That excludes the possibility of AI as the copyright owner.Meanwhile,the real right holder can be defined according to the rules determined by current copyright practices.Compared with the creator and owner,the user shows a closer relationship with algorithm-based creation,which plays a decisive role in the content and form of AI-generated works.It is suggested that according to the actual contribution to creation,AI users should be regarded as the original right holders of the generated content.The basic conditions of copyright belonging to users are set from three levels:reverse exclusion elements,positive constitutive elements and formal description elements.As for the future of copyright in the era of intelligence augmentation,the paper points out that human beings must adhere to the principle of the unity of instrumental rationality and legal rationality while embracing the tide of the times with evolutionary ideas.We ought to accommodate human practices with more open concepts of the object and the author.
