Abstract

In modern life with ever-changing science and technology, artificial intelligence has become more and more popular, existing in all aspects of people's lives, playing an important and difficult to replace role. However, the lag of the law leads to the fact that it can not solve all disputes, especially in the copyright ownership of artificial intelligence works, whether it is infringement, contract disputes or copyright protection. It is an urgent problem to be solved. Because most of the disputes in the present stage of artificial intelligence are in the aspect of economic property, this paper discusses the ownership of the rights of works from the perspective of law and economics and economic principles. Based on the incentive principle in economics, the feasible path in academic research and the subject of legal responsibility, this paper should ascribe its rights to investors. However, in order to avoid conflicts between the right to use and the right to publish, the node where the user "pays fees" should be regarded as the investor's transfer of the ownership of the work in a "silent" way. If the investment company refuses, it shall do so in an express manner.
