This Note argues for a new trademark standard that reflects the interconnected nature of a global digital society.

Artificial Intelligence And Transformative Use After Warhol, Gary Myers

Washington and Lee Law Review Online

The Supreme Court’s recent decision in Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. v. Goldsmith clarifies the scope of transformative use and the role of these uses in the fair use analysis. This important case has implications for a fair use analysis of artificial intelligence. This article evaluates the interaction between copyright law’s fair use doctrine and typical sources and uses for artificial intelligence. In other words, the article will assess whether or not the use of copyrighted material to “train” AI programs—AI inputs—and the products of AI programs—AI outputs—are likely to found to be transformative in light of …

Enablement For Genus Claims: A Bifurcated Approach, Jie Yang

Chicago-Kent Journal of Intellectual Property

Abstract After two jury trials, two trips to the Federal Circuit, and two petitions to the Supreme Court, the Court this past term decided Amgen Inc. v. Sanofi without much controversy. In a unanimous decision, the Court affirmed the invalidation of Amgen’s functional antibody claims for lack of enablement. As a result, inventors down the road, not just life sciences companies, may find it more difficult to obtain broad patents. Although the Court was clear that Amgen may not “monopolize an entire class of things defined by their function,” the opinion fell short of guiding lower courts on how to …

Exploring The Role Of Patent Offices In Climate Change Mitigation, Johanna Rahnasto

Chicago-Kent Journal of Intellectual Property

Patent offices are developing new programs to help in climate change mit- igation. What can they deliver? This Article provides a contemporary overview of the different green technology initiatives promoted by patent offices: fast- tracking of patent applications, search platforms, applicant resources, and publicity and awareness programs. The Article concludes that special treat- ment of green technology is fair and administrable when programs are openly accessible but narrowly tailored. The most tangible effect of these initiatives is the increased control by the patentee over the patenting and commercialization process, which is valuable even when effects of these programs on technology …

Bringing Shadow Libraries Out Of Legal Shadows: An Opportunity For The Delhi High Court, Rahul Bajaj, Anchal Bhateja

Indian Journal of Law and Technology

At the heart of the copyright bargain is the need to strike a balance between fostering creativity, by incentivizing producers of intellectual property and promoting the interests of the public at large. These two are often in tension with each other. Some cases bring this tension into sharp focus. The ongoing litigation in the Delhi high Court, on the legality of shadow libraries - Libgen and Sci Hub - is one such case. The case has seminal importance for ensuring that the right to education is duly respected and fulfilled.

In this paper, we argue that this litigation offers the …

Rise Of The Machines: The Future Of Intellectual Property Rights In The Age Of Artificial Intelligence, Sofia Vescovo

Brooklyn Law Review

Artificial intelligence (AI) is not new to generating outputs considered suitable for intellectual property (IP) protection. However, recent technological advancements have made it possible for AI to transform from a mere tool used to assist in developing IP to the mind behind novel artistic works and inventions. One particular AI, DABUS, has done just so. Yet, while technology has advanced, IP law has not. This note sets out to provide a solution to the legal concerns raised by AI in IP law, specifically in the context of AI authorship and inventorship. The DABUS test case offers a model framework for …

That Thing Ain't Human: The Artificiality Of "Human Authorship" And The Intelligence In Expanding Copyright Authorship To Fully-Autonomous Ai, Ernest Oleksy

Cleveland State Law Review

The U.S. Copyright Review Board (the "Board") decided that works entirely created by fully-autonomous artificial intelligence ("AI") are not entitled to copyright protections. The Board based its decision on a copyrightability requirement referred to as “human authorship.” However, the Copyright Act of 1976 (the "Act") never mentions a “human” requirement to copyright authorship, nor do most of the Board’s cited authorities. Denying authorship to intellectually-impressive and economically-valuable works under a poorly-established legal subelement is antithetical to copyright law’s history and to Congress’s constitutional mandate to “promote . . . [the] useful [a]rts . . . .” It leaves creators who …
