Securing License for Internet Artificial Intelligence

By Jonathan Bick
June 01, 2023

As artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly interpenetrates internet transactions, licensing interest expands. The licensing of internet AI intellectual property is stymied because legal difficulties such as the proper assessment of the jurisdiction for the licensing agreement and the nature of the internet including the proper identification of the parties for the licensing agreement. However, the primary issue associated with securing a licensor's consent for internet AI intellectual property is that normally the licensor is a computer program, hence not a legal person.

Legal, business and technological solutions to this difficulty are available. All of these solutions involve modifying the AI's form or output.

AI, sometimes known as machine learning, is a sequence of instructions telling an algorithm to transform input data into a desired output. AI differs from traditional computer software algorithms due to a feature that allows AI computer software to re-write its own code independently or code previously defined by the programmer. Unlike traditional computer software algorithms which limit the code re-write to criteria and biases previously coded by the programmer, AI software code re-write is experience driven and hence free of programmer criteria and biases.
