Artificial Intelligence & Intellectual Property in the Creative Field – IP & AI Seminar

Is generative AI a tool for scriptwriters, musicians, and game designers, or will it replace them? Who owns the intellectual property rights if a partner or machine creates the content? How does the digital dimension change ownership?

These questions will be answered at a joint event by Creative Business Finland and the Patent and Registration Office on Wednesday, 25.10.2023. Also present will be IP/IPR experts with whom you can pre-book a meeting and discuss your situation with.
