The government’s intellectual property (IP) rights body said on Monday that it was looking into drafting a set of guidelines for local artists about the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in their work, including a system for determining how much of a product partially generated by the technology could be copyrighted.
Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) Director General Rowel Barba said they would discuss this with other government agencies and stakeholders in the coming days.
“We are hopeful that the Philippine government will be able to come up with one AI regulation. It appears that the different government agencies are doing their own but hopefully we’ll be able to integrate and consolidate all those guidelines in one measure,” Barba said in a press conference during the 2nd Philippine International Copyright Summit 2024 held in Quezon City.
