Legal Issues of Generative AI

Dr. El-Guindy authored a research paper on the legal implications of Generative AI which published in the Journal of Law and Emerging Technologies, The British University in Egypt.

This research paper examines the legal implications of the widespread adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and technologies emerging from it such as Generative AI, particularly in the context of the presence of advanced language models like ChatGPT. Specifically, the paper focuses on the legal challenges associated with the use of Generative AI, including issues surrounding intellectual property rights, data privacy, fair competition, and academic integrity. The key areas of concern include potential infringements of intellectual property rights due to content generated by AI systems, the implications for data privacy given the large datasets utilized by Generative AI, and the impact on fair competition in various markets due to deceptive practices enabled by AI-generated content. By analyzing these legal issues and challenges, the aim of this research is to raise awareness and provide insights into the appropriate legal frameworks and policies needed to address them. It could be said that a balanced approach is crucial to protect intellectual property rights, ensure data privacy, foster fair competition, and maintaining academic integrity in the age of AI and Generative AI technologies.
