LawTech.Asia is proud to collaborate with the Singapore Management University Yong Pung How School of Law’s LAW4060 AI Law, Policy and Ethics class. This collaborative special series is a collection featuring selected essays from students of the class. For the class’ final assessment, students were asked to choose from a range of practice-focused topics, such as writing a law reform paper on an AI-related topic, analysing jurisdictional approaches to AI regulation, or discussing whether such a thing as “AI law” exists. The collaboration is aimed at encouraging law students to analyse issues using the analytical frames taught in class, and apply them in practical scenarios combining law and policy.
This piece, written by Deng Haiying, seeks to tackle challenges that generative AI brings to copyright law. In doing so, Haiying’s paper explores the current state of the law in Singapore on generative AI and copyright, factors to be taken into account when exploring regulatory reforms in this area, and possible regulatory solutions to tackle the copyright challenges posed by generative AI.
