Analyse how AI can safeguard or violate content authenticity and intellectual property.
Descriptors
Basic
What you learn at this level
Learners know that AI-generated content may reuse or copy work protected by intellectual property or copyright laws and recognise implications for the humans who created the original work.
Learners examine examples of music generated with AI to imitate a famous artist. With their teacher, learners discuss how this raises concerns about copyright, ownership and attributing proper credit to the artist.
Intermediate
What you learn at this level
Learners consider when attribution, permission or avoidance of AI is appropriate for a creative task and apply these choices in their own work.
Learners compare original work to AI-generated poems, then discuss with their teacher what makes something “original.” They then identify school-based guidelines for attributing AI use.
Advanced
What you learn at this level
Learners assess the ethical implications of AI-generated outputs for creative work, distinguish inspiration from replication in their outputs, and justify how their use of AI maintains authenticity and respects other creators.
Learners are presented with examples of art created entirely by a human, generated by an AI system and created by an artist along with AI. Learners consider what choices a human did or did not make for each piece, who should be credited as the artist, what should be protected by copyright and how AI may change artistic creation in the future.
