Artificial Intelligence, Intellectual Property and Judicial System

March 2023Intellectual PropertyGeneral

Abstract

Stephen Hawking referred to artificial intelligence (AI) as a science that could help in resolving the issues that occupy humanity. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) considers AI as a system and defines it as "a machine-based system that can, for a given set of human-defined objectives, make predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing real or virtual environments". Schalkoff defines AI as a field of study "that seeks to explain and emulate intelligent behaviour in terms of computational processes".
