Artificial intelligence /AI/ as a technology based models presents many abilities to students, researchers and lecturers to achieve their academic goals rapidly and efficiency. AI researchers have a wide range of techniques, including search and software optimization and methods based on statistics, operations research, and economics. Very used models like LLMs, ChatGPT, open AI and more realise deep research in data bases in chosen by students and researchers scientific and educational field.
As a deep research models and systematised data bases in a specific the results made by AI may infringe on the copyright holder's exclusive right and patent rights holders. Additionally, using a model's creation in text, visual expressions and others creative results might violate copyright and patent rights and face a responsible for copyright infringement and patent violation. Thea are more than 440 patents in AI based educational models an more than 10000 patents in AI as a whole,
Many questions are raised in this research paper:
- overall assessment of AI use in education: advantages and disadvantages
- copyright in AI and AI infringement in copyright;
- patent exclusive rights in AI and infringement in patent right in AI
More than 50% of the surveyed students and researchers use AI in their academic work and publications of their results with incomplete information for plagiarism, copyright, patent right and potential violation of these IP rights.
