Contenuti

This seminar is an advanced spin-off of the Copyright Law course and requires the knowledge of the basic principles of Copyright Law.

It can be therefore selected only if the Copyright Law course has been selected too, and passing the Copyright Law exam is required to take the exam of this seminar.

The course will deal with the advanced principles, cases (and provisions, if any) on copyright applied to generative AI systems.

Given that attendance is compulsory, the programme of the course will be the same for all students (e.g., Erasmus, Overseas, etc.).

Since there is not yet an updated and "ultimate" handbook on such an evolving subject matter, the teaching materials will be shared and discussed in class, lesson by lesson, then uploaded on the Virtuale repository.

Metodi didattici

Case analysis on copyright applied to Generative AI Systems.

Due to high technicalities, attendance is compulsory for at least 20 hours. Signature by the students will be required each lesson.

Modalità di verifica e valutazione dell'apprendimento

At the end of May - beginning of June 2025, a written exam shall be arranged according to the Department's sessions.

All the following exams will be oral. As for the Summer Session, the further (oral) exams will be around mid-June and the first half July 2025. 

The oral exam will be passed showing at least a sufficient knowledge on the programme, sufficient reasoning ability and sufficient technical-legal language.
