Artificial Intelligence Disruptions: ChatGPT 4 and Intellectual Property




Keeping IP Lawyers in Business

If you have not heard or read some of the buzz about the AI revolution, you either live under a rock or you are off the grid. In the realm of artificial intelligence, the biggest disruption of the last year has occurred with the introduction of large generative language models such as ChatGPT.

ChatGPT’s viral spread from its introduction on November 30, 2022, has already upended business and educational activities. It reached 100 million users faster than any other online application or social media before it. One of the areas feeling its reverberations is the section of law that deals with intellectual property (IP).


 

Three ChatGPT 4 Hiccoughs

Three issues that the newest iteration of ChatGPT (4) have brought to the fore are the way it infringes on third-party IP, the difficulty it creates of determining authorship and ownership, and the way it interferes with tracing IP and holding people accountable for infringements (www.bing.com).

Human creators object to how generative learning models such ChatGPT 4 can scrape the entire internet and subsequently reproduce their text, images, or sound without consent, credit, or compensation. For instance, there is one case of ChatGPT reproducing exactly a song lyric from Taylor Swift in a prompt to write a song. It also has the potential to reveal trade secrets of businesses whose IP consists of patents. These are clear violations of IP laws.

Furthermore, with regards to the content produced by ChatGPT 4: who owns it? Does the person who wrote the prompt own it, or do the developers of ChatGPT 4 own it? Finally, because it trains itself on the entirety of the internet, without people having the option to opt out, it is very difficult to trace when and where it reproduces material directly, thereby violating copyright laws.
