Правовая концепция перформативного авторства
The neural network breakthrough in the development of technologies for producing information objects based on the scientific and artistic heritage of mankind has intensified the discussion about what AI generated products are. Whether they can legitimately be considered protected results of creative activity, and who owns the copyright to them. The problem is aggravated by the fact that the sociocultural space is overflowing with an unlimited number of content artifacts with an uncertain legal status. This negatively affects the effectiveness of protecting the intellectual rights of anthropic authors and their ability to use publicly available information for creative purposes.
This article is devoted to the analysis of the automatic copyright protection regime in the realities of large-scale generation of quasi-creative forms. The work focuses on replies under what terms the creator of the generated artifact is a legally capable author and the result of AI generation is a protected work. The legal status of authorship claiming subject and the legal capacity of its work are analyzed for their compliance with the criteria of IP doctrine. The key objective of the study is to improve the mechanism for assigning copyrights to achieve the goals of this legal institution in the new technological order.
As a result of the study, a concept of performative copyright is developed, which assumes the replacement of automatic protection principle by the registration procedure for granting copyrights. A procedure for assessing the legal capacity of a potential author according to specified criteria is designed. Legal features are determined that make it possible to separate potentially protectable results of content generation from those that cannot be considered protected works. In conclusion, a proposal is put forward to expand the nomenclature of doctrinal goals of copyright in the context of mass generation of information objects.
