Supporting incentivisation and protection for innovation

Additional Information

1.1 Innovation is only of value if it can benefit society. Funding is necessary to develop innovation to a level where it can be disseminated and utilised by society. Those from whom funding is sought require a return on their investment. Consequently, there must be incentivisation and protection for innovation if it is to attract investment and be brought to the greater good of society. 1.2 Organisations must therefore be allowed to protect rights in works resulting from the use of AI, whether AI-created works or AI enabled works. 1.3 However, care needs to be taken not to take steps which will amount to overprotection, as this could prove detrimental to the ultimate goal of IP protection.
