Is AI’s Copyright World Flat, or Will AI Flatten the Copyright World?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is global, and copyright laws are national. Thus, some countries will have strict laws on making copies of copyrighted content to “train” an AI system while others will be more relaxed. Laws are about economics, and countries with more relaxed laws are likely to be countries with smaller creative industries and which wish to use the relaxed legal regime to attract AI investment. AI companies will use these jurisdictional differences as leverage to lobby for the relaxation of legal standards in countries with stricter laws.

IP Offshoring: The Pros, Cons and Potential Cost Savings

There are two main business strategies of offshoring, called the captive form model and independent contractor model. The captive firm model is when a company hires their own employees and managers in the foreign country, train the local people and have exclusion control and responsibility over those people. The foreign entity works for the single firm and requires a very large investment and the liability falls on that firm to open the office. As a result, the firm has greater control over the people and personnel, training, and confidentiality.
