Governing the large language model commons: using digital assets to endow intellectual property rights
研究大语言模型导致知识产权保护困难的原因,提出非同质化代币(NFT)作为解决数字知识产权复杂性的工具,并通过案例展示其在区块链上解决纠纷的作用。
Abstract The emergence of large language models (LLMs) has made it increasingly difficult to protect and enforce intellectual property (IP) rights in a digital landscape where content can be easily accessed and utilized without clear authorization. First, we explain why LLMs make it uniquely difficult to protect and enforce IP, creating a ‘tragedy of the commons.’ Second, drawing on theories of polycentric governance, we argue that non-fungible tokens (NFTs) could be effective tools for addressing the complexities of digital IP rights. Third, we provide an illustrative case study that shows how NFTs can facilitate dispute resolution of IP on the blockchain.
