SUMMARY:A case study to analyze in praxis copyright relevant AI issues: Pharos\, the Greek AI Factory
DESCRIPTION:Greece’s vision for AI comes to life through Pharos\, the Greek AI Factory\, realizing the objectives of the Blueprint for Greece’s AI transformation that prescribes a culturally sovereign digital future. This is a common initiative where creators are essential partners\, not only preserving but actively shaping the future of Greek language\, culture\, music\, and creative expression in AI ecosystems worldwide. \nTo support this transition\, it is vital to revisit the notion of copyright and related frameworks with the realities of AI training\, generation\, and commercialization\, ensuring transparency\, fair value distribution\, and sustainable innovation. \nTogether\, through ethical design\, technical excellence\, and shared governance\, the foundations for a culturally sovereign\, internationally competitive\, and creator-driven AI future for Greece. After the presentation of PHAROS by Alexandros Nousias\, the other speakers will comment from their perspective and expertise on this project\, highlighting the challenges that will bring from a copyright perspective. \nPowered by the Hellenic Copyright Organisation\nPresenter: Maria-Daphne Papadopoulou

SUMMARY:The new remix: AI\, authorship & challenges for rights management
DESCRIPTION:In his seminal work Remix\, Lawrence Lessig explored how digital technologies were reshaping culture by enabling a new form of participation—one where users became creators through the re-use and recombination of existing content. Today\, we are witnessing a new kind of remix: not by humans reinterpreting art\, but by machines generating it. As artificial intelligence becomes an increasingly powerful tool for creating music\, fundamental questions about authorship\, ownership\, and rights management resurface in a radically different context. What happens to rights management systems when music is composed by algorithms—or collaboratively by humans and machines? \nPowered by the Hellenic Copyright Organisation

SUMMARY:Create a jazz song about three kids dancing on the beach in the springtime. AI generated music: 5+1 facts about who owns © / check the terms.
DESCRIPTION:The ownership of copyright in AI generated music is a complex and evolving issue. Human musicians may have great advantageσ while at the same time ethical considerations arise. Let’s have a look into some different legal frameworks\, examine the level of human involvement as this happens in the creation process and check the terms of service of AI platforms\, such as SUNO. \nPowered by Hellenic Copyright Organisation

SUMMARY:Fair remuneration of copyright and related rightsholders over musical works: The landfill of buyout practices
DESCRIPTION:EU and national law recognise the principle of fair and appropriate remuneration for both authors and performers\, establishing this as an equal level of high protection and a core principle of copyright and related–rights law. However\, the ongoing and emerging trend of buyout agreements\, the unilateral enforcement of buyout clauses\, and related practices undermine the rule of law and threaten the continued creation of music.\nAs the digital era gives way to the age of AI\, we increasingly hear the voices of authors and performers calling for concrete protective measures. This presentation will explore the impact of buyouts with the aim of highlighting current challenges and amplifying the need for reform. \nPowered by the Hellenic Copyright Organisation

SUMMARY:The ‘Taylor’s Version’ strategy: Re-recording music albums
DESCRIPTION:Swift’s move to re-record and re-release her albums\, labelling them as ‘Taylor’s Version’\, seems to have paved the way for a change in the world of music. On the other side of the Atlantic Ocean\, Taylor Swift regained control of her creative work\, meaning not only of her musical works but also of the master recordings. Although there is an interesting backstory explaining Taylor Swift’s decision\, in this presentation\, we focus on the legal grounds that made it possible. Copyright\, licensing\, and commercial transactions form an exciting world\, and this case confirms it. \nPowered by the Hellenic Copyright Organisation\nPresenter: Maria Daphne Papadopoulou
