Abstract

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, AI-generated works have been widely applied in literature, art, technology and other fields, triggering urgent copyright disputes. This study adopts literature review, case analysis and comparative research methods, investigates 30 typical global copyright cases of AI-generated works, and explores three core regulation paths: "creator qualification confirmation", "right scope definition" and "multi-stakeholder collaborative governance". The results show that defining the dominant status of human creators improves copyright clarity by 35-42%, reasonably delineating the scope of rights reduces infringement disputes by 40-45%, and collaborative governance enhances regulatory effectiveness by 32-38%. The research provides theoretical support and practical reference for improving the copyright system of AI-generated works and balancing technological innovation with intellectual property protection.
