AI, Copyright & Emerging Legal Challenges

Independent Research

The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has profoundly reshaped the boundaries of authorship, creativity, and regulatory control. My independent research in this domain focuses on the legal complexities arising at the intersection of AI and copyright law, with emphasis on ownership of machine-generated works, originality in algorithmic creativity, deepfakes regulation, and the evolving understanding of fair use in digital education. Through a series of peer-reviewed publications, this body of work addresses the urgent need to re-examine traditional IP frameworks in light of technological disruption, while offering contextually grounded perspectives for India’s legal landscape. My scholarship also anticipates policy reforms to ensure that innovation and public interest co-exist in a digital-first future.
