Artificial Intelligence: IPR, Liability and Ethical Issues

December 2018Ethics General

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) has captured our imagination and fantasies since a long time. Though we refer AI as modern technology, the first concept of an automated machine known as “Automaton Knight” was designed by Leonardo da vinci in as early as 1495. The word “robot” was first introduced by Karel Capek, a Czech playwright, in 1920 in his play Rossum’s Universal Robot. The term was used by the author in a negative connotation, it has since then inspired many movies in different languages worldwide to portrait robots or AI in the same light. In today’s world, it would not be wrong to say that in real life different forms of AIs have made our day to day life much easier and more comfortable in considerable ways.
