Generative AI: What is the New Copyright System 'Creator Registration System'? Prepare for Practical Use! Free Archive Video of the Popular Seminar 'Understanding Copyright in the Generative AI Era Vol.4' on June 29 (Mon)!

Creek & River Co. (C&R) will provide a free archive video of its online seminar titled 'Understanding Copyright in the Generative AI Era Vol.4 – Getting Ahead of 2026’s Norms: What is the Creator Registration System?,' which was held on June 1 (Mon), targeting creators and those who wish to use AI-generated works with confidence.

In recent years, generative AI has rapidly become widespread. While extremely convenient, many people struggle to determine what is permissible and what is not. To address this, C&R hosted a seminar explaining copyright issues related to AI-generated content.

The speaker was Makiko Hasegawa, a Certified Intellectual Property Manager. In this final installment of the series, Vol.4, she clearly explained the new copyright system, the 'Individual Creator Rights Information Registration System,' along with its associated adjudication system, incorporating practical use cases. This new system, launched in 2026, aims to help individual creators properly manage their rights information and smoothly coordinate usage with third parties amid increasing complexity in copyright ownership and rights management due to the spread of generative AI. This session serves as a guide to the 'future standard' of copyright in the generative AI era and is highly recommended for anyone involved in AI utilization or creative production. Those interested are encouraged to watch.

Speaker

Certified Intellectual Property Manager Makiko Hasegawa After working in R&D at a major plant engineering company, she joined the intellectual property department, handling patent applications. As an IP officer, she participated in launching new ventures directly under the CEO, collaborating with legal, development, and sales teams while learning business model development from external consultants. Through experiences in brand creation and marketing, she realized that intellectual property is not only about protecting rights and avoiding risks but also a key indicator of corporate value, deepening her passion for IP. Believing that copyright, as part of intellectual property, should be a fundamental IT literacy for everyone in the generative AI era, she conducts training for beginners. <Qualifications> - Certified Intellectual Property Manager Level 2 - Business Copyright Certification Advanced Level
