As artificial intelligence transforms the way we create, invent, and innovate, it’s also forcing the legal world to face unprecedented challenges. In this episode, Dr. Don Simmonds, IP law expert and founder of IPITEC, dives deep into the future of intellectual property law in the age of AI.

From AI-generated art and machine-written books to patent disputes over AI-created inventions, this conversation unpacks the complex legal questions around AI copyright, AI patent law, and ownership rights in AI-assisted creation.

Dr. Simmonds shares:

Why the key legal question right now is “what is enough?” when determining human vs. AI contribution
How courts and legislators are wrestling with AI authorship, inventorship, and public domain issues
The impact of AI tools like ChatGPT on legal work and argument drafting
Why major corporations may deliberately drag out AI-related lawsuits for strategic advantage
The differences between US and EU approaches to AI regulation, from revenue rights to AI privacy laws
How AI deepfakes, voice cloning, and synthetic media are challenging existing copyright frameworks
The looming question of whether AI could ever be granted rights — and what would have to change first

Whether you’re a lawyer, creator, entrepreneur, tech founder, or policy maker, this episode will help you understand the fast-evolving intersection between artificial intelligence and intellectual property protection — and how to navigate it in your business or creative practice.
