In this episode, we explore how generative AI is impacting copyright law in Nigeria. As AI changes the way we create art, music, and writing, we focus on fair dealing, a rule in copyright law that allows people to use small parts of copyrighted work without permission. But with AI using large amounts of data to create new content, can the old rules still apply?
We explain what fair dealing is and why it’s important. We also discuss how AI needs massive amounts of data to train, and whether the content AI generates is truly original or just a copy.
The episode also covers the risks for creators and AI developers, touching on potential copyright issues and privacy concerns. Finally, we look at why Nigeria may need to update its copyright laws to keep up with this fast-changing technology.
This episode is inspired by our blog post, Nigeria's Copyright Act 2022 and Generative AI: Addressing Fair Dealing Challenges. Tune in to hear more about how copyright laws might need to change to protect creators and encourage innovation in AI.
