摘　　要：AI-generated images are a prime example of AI-generated content,and this paper discusses the controversy over their copyrightability.Starting with the general technical principles that lie behind AI’s deep learning for model training and the generation and correction of AI-generated images according to an AI users’instructions to the AI prompt and their parameter settings,the paper analyzes the initial legal viewpoint that as AI-generated images do not have a human creator,they cannot apply for copyright.It goes on to examine the rapid development of AI-generated image technology and the gradual adoption of more open attitudes towards the copyrightability of AI-generated images due to the influence of the promoting technological advancement approach.On the basis of this,the paper further analyzes the criteria for assessing the copyrightability of AI-generated images,by using measures such as originality,human authorship,and intellectual achievements,aiming to clarify the legal basis for the copyrightability of AI-generated images and enhancing the copyright protection system.
