More Information

This incisive Handbook offers novel theoretical and doctrinal insights alongside practical guidance on some of the most challenging issues in the field of artificial intelligence and intellectual property. Featuring all original contributions from a diverse group of international thought leaders, including top academics, judges, regulators and eminent practitioners, it offers timely perspectives and research on the relationship of AI to copyright, trademark, design, patent and trade secret law.

The Handbook is divided into four thematic parts, beginning with topics that address the intersection of IP and AI broadly before focusing on issues associated with specific types of IP. Chapters tackle critical legal questions, from issues with protecting AI-generated output to the impact of AI on how trademarks are used, offering valuable lessons on technology regulation and how technological evolution will disrupt existing legal frameworks.

Scholars and students of intellectual property law and its intersections with AI and related technologies will find this Handbook ’s cutting-edge contributions to be a crucial read. Its guidance on the practical legal implications of technological advances will also be of interest to IP practitioners, as well as policymakers and regulators.

Critical Acclaim

‘A book of impressive breadth and thoughtfully curated analyses of doctrinal and policy issues at the intersection of AI and Intellectual Property (IP). The Handbook illuminates challenges across all IP fields and exposes the fragile normative bases on which many of our extant laws depend. It is a must have and a “go to” for meaningful engagement with the complex questions regarding the regulation of AI and IP — both nationally and globally.’
– Ruth L. Okediji, Harvard Law School, US
