Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) has an important role in digital

transformation worldwide, including in Indonesia. AI itself is

a simulation of human intelligence that is modeled in

machines and programmed to think like humans. At the

time AI and the Internet of Things are connected, it can, in

principle, act on data without the need for human

intervention. AI was originally created by humans as a

consequence of the massive digital revolution. Recently, AI

has also developed rapidly to perform functions like

humans and even produce works of intellectual property

like humans, such as creating songs, making new inven-

tions, making industrial designs, and so on. Thus, it is a

question whether AI can be qualified as a legal subject of

creator, inventor or designer and then register as intellec-

tual property. This research answers this question from the

perspective of Indonesian law based on Copyright Law,

Patent Law, Industrial Design Law, as well as Trademark

Law, and Geographical Indications as the existing Indone-

sian laws.
