AbstractThe exponential growth of AI has reshaped the landscape of IP, presenting opportunities that demand a reassessment of the existing legal and regulatory framework. This study explores the changing legal and regulatory frameworks and the intellectual property that ensure the safeguarding of AI-generated contemporary art and innovations. As AI systems increasingly engage in creative and inventive activities, traditional laws and originality– fundamental to IP Protection. Allegedly, the principal issues of the investigation are the adequacy of current legislation in protecting AI-related IPR, as well as the limitations and ambiguities in enforcing these laws. The legal dilemma of assigning rights ton on-human creators and the lack of clarity regarding the responsibilities of AI developers and users intensify the complexities in enforcement. This study incorporates a qualitative approach, along with documentary analysis, academic articles and case studies, to collect data and provide a more comprehensive view of the legal framework and copyright frameworks in response to AI development. It also examines integrating AI into IP governance through innovation oversight models. Key challenges include the human–centric bias in IP Laws that fail to accommodate AI-generated works, uncertainty in establishing authorship and intervention ship and jurisdictional barriers in cross–border enforcement. It also discusses AI’s dual role in protecting IP rights through copyright, patents and trademarks that it can potentially infringe. This study critically examines the legal systems governing IP in AI innovation and considers the necessary steps to enforce these rights. The inquiry includes a brief explanation of how AI affects compliance with and violations of IP laws. This study pulls all the findings and shares with the ongoing debate on the impact of AI on the impact of AI on intellectual property -the study suggests some legal reforms to fill in the holes in the regulations. The suggestions involve creating new fields of protection for AI-generated works, modifying the notion of authorship and working out an affordable and fair payment scheme for the original creators whose content is used in the training. AI tools could also be used to IP examination such as trademark distinctiveness assessments and patentability evaluations, etc., through improved interfaces, can even replace humans in some of the judicial processes and at the same time, it cuts down on errors significantly. Based on these findings, the paper emphasizes the need to build international legal regulation that acknowledges the revolutionary potential of AI in the legal field without neglecting human creativity and aims to do so through balanced regulation. This study illuminates the ongoing IP law discourse and offers a critical perspective on AI’s dual role as both a maker and a disruptor of intellectual property norms. In conclusion, the study supports a progressive, adaptive and morally stable legal framework that can accommodate the ongoing evolution of AI technologies and intellectual property. By doing so, it prepares the way for future policy and academic discussions aimed at unraveling the bewildering puzzles of the digital age.
