The rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) has sparked worldwide debates on how copyright law should respond to the challenges it has raised. In Hong Kong (HK), this conversation has taken centre stage in the recently published Consultation Paper on Copyright and Artificial Intelligence.1 With the aim of providing the HK legislator with a complete picture of the global debate, the School of Law at City University of Hong Kong (CityUHK) held an international conference entitled ‘Comparative Perspectives on AI and Copyright Law: Evaluating HK’s Policy Responses in the AI Era’ on 12–13 December 2024. The conference gathered international legal scholars, practitioners and policymakers to examine how copyright law and policy can properly respond to the AI challenges. This special issue, ‘AI and Copyright upgrate’, arises from that conference and presents six selected papers that together illuminate how copyright regimes can be updated for the AI era. Each contribution addresses a distinct facet of the GAI-copyright interface: the overall impact, copyrightability, infringement, intermediary liability, automated copyright enforcement and remuneration and inequality. Together, they offer insights into doctrinal rethinking, policy innovation and the fundamental values at stake.
