Artificial Intelligence and Intellectual Property

Should AIs own 'their' intellectual property? The UK government are currently having a Call For Views (CFV) [1] on the relationship between AI and IP (Intellectual Property) -- should AIs be allowed to own IP? A couple of UKIPO's senior staff spoke about the background to the CFV recently on a podcast channel that previously interviewed [3] the creator of DABUS, an AI that applied for a patent. Should DABUS hold a patent, can a monkey own a selfie, should #aisongcontest [5] songs be protected by copyright, how about DreamWrite's AI written articles [6]? There is a summary of the CFV questions [4], some people here will be creators of systems to which these issues directly relate. Also presently the World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO) currently have an online exhibition on the subject of AI & IP [6].
