1. Copyright Attribution and IP Ownership
By using AI to analyse styles, patterns and metadata of creative works, the algorithms employed could identify the true creators of digital content, specifically where ownership or attribution is disputed or unclear.
2. Infringement Detection
AI is already being used in some capacity to identify copyright infringements but there are ways that it can be used even more. Algorithms could be developed for AI to automatically analyse complex works (such as music), to detect instances where this was being used without proper authorisation, licensing or sampling for example. AI algorithms could also be used to identify trademark infringements across multiple platforms and/or digital mediums.
- 3. Litigation Support
- AI technologies such as language processing and machine learning could assist in legal research and case analysis. Systems powers by AI could be used to analyse copious amounts of legal precedents, court issued mandates and/or issued decisions, and provide recommendations and insights for supporting information inclusion and/or litigation strategies for intellectual property enforcement in general.

- 4. Patent Analysis
- AI already has a proven track record for assisting with searching for creative content created prior to the one in question and patent drafting. There is however, the potential for AI to provide more comprehensive analysis of patent landscapes in general. Algorithms could analysis and categorize patent portfolios, provide insight on research and strategies for dealing with infringement (or the avoidance of infringement) and identify emerging trends.

- 5. Education and Awareness
AI can be used to develop interactive, personalized learning tools for education and AI chatbots or virtual assistants to provide guidance and answers to questions, helping creators and innovators also understand their rights and obligations as these relate to IP.
6. Valuation and Licensing
Amongst other things, AI has the potential to enhance IP valuation methodologies. It does this by analysing factors such as technological advancements, competitive landscapes and market trends. Systems powered by AI could assist in determining fair licensing terms and conditions and provide assistance with valuing and increasing the potential of IP assets.
It should be stated that while AI holds promise in these areas, human expertise and legal judgment is still crucial to the IP field. The legal, ethical and policy implications of AI adoption in the domain of IP, should always be carefully considered to ensure transparency, fairness and ongoing adherence to existing (and future) legal frameworks.
