Keywords: trademark, EU Regulation, EU trademark, European Union, Europeansystem of trademark protection The developmentof economic integration of European countries has created the need to create asingle system of legal protection of trademarks, as it should contribute to the formationof a common market, the conditions of which are the possibility of competitionand free movement of goods and services in European countries. One of the legal instrumentsto meet these conditions is the trademark, which must be used in the EuropeanUnion. The creation of a common economic space in Europe has contradicted thenational laws of each of the member states of the European Union. Therefore, there isa need to create a single European system of trademark protection.According to the EU Regulation, one of the main functions of an EU trademark isto guarantee the origin of goods and services sold or provided to consumers under thattrademark. The EU trademark is unitary. As it is registered for all member states ofthe European Union through a single procedure, it acquires rights only if it is acceptedin all member states of the European Union. An EU trademark is acquired onlythrough registration, not use. The EU regulation provides for the free movement of goods and services betweenmember states. Accordingly, the owner of an EU trademark cannot object to the use ofsuch a registered trademark in the European Union. Moreover, the EU regulation definesnot only the registration criteria, but also the examination procedure, includingthe possibility of objections to registration made by third parties, and the procedurefor filing claims for infringement of trademark rights.Either party may appeal the decision on the objection to the Board of Appeal ofthe European Union Intellectual Property Office. Thereafter, any issue can be appealedto the Court of Justice of the European Union, which can only annul orchange the decision.Once the EU trademark application has been published, the pre-emption holderhas three months to file an objection. Obtaining an EU trademark is essential for asuccessful brand protection strategy. Since its inception, the EU trademark systemhas become one of the most important tools available to both legal entities and individualswho want to effectively protect their trademark rights in Europe.

It has been proven that in a separate group of copyright objects it is expedientto allocate new digital objects that appear recently — NFT, multimediaworks, video games (computer games), Internet site, blockchain, and others. The legalnature of new digital copyright objects has been found to be controversial. It is establishedthat in the scientific literature NFT is interpreted as an independent object ofcopyright, as a way to use the object of copyright (for example, conversion of art into adigital token form), as an objective form of expression (digital token form), as securitydigital document, as a way of technical protection of the copyright object from encroachmenton it. It has been proven that converting a work into an NFT form is away to commercialize a copyright object. Furthermore, it is substantiated that NFT isa form of expression (existence) of the object of copyright, and NFT-work (photography,video, painting, drawing, music etc.) in the presence of originality (creative nature)is the object of copyright, which is fixed in specific digital tokenized form.It has been established that tokenization of works provides additional opportunitiesfor copyright protection of such objects due to blockchain — the technology onwhich NFT operates.It has been proven that NFT as a digital certificate certifies the uniqueness of thework, which allows increasing its value and avoid illegal distribution in the digital environmentin the future (which is typical of almost all digital and digitized copyrightobjects). Likewise, it has been proven that most NFT disputes should be resolvedbased on the findings of judicial intellectual property and computer science expertise.It has been established that copyright law is not adapted to regulate the use of worksin the digital environment, so NFT works have an undefined legal regime as objects ofcopyright.

The current legislationand judicial practice are analysed, it is substantiated that advertising elementsshould be characterized by signs of originality, uniqueness, and uniqueness.As a rule, advertising combines several objects of copyright at once. At the sametime, each separate part of the work (advertising video) can be used independentlyand is considered as a work and is protected in accordance with the Law of Ukraine«Copyright and Related Rights». Given the above, advertising is considered as a complex,multi-layered object of copyright, which includes various independent objects —elements of it. At the same time, in the case of creating advertising as a complex object,it is assumed that intellectual property rights must be transferred to all copyrightobjects that are part of it.Copyright objects what can be used in advertising are usually: drawings, animations,photographs, musical accompaniment, video, design, font, etc.Separate interest as an object of copyright deserves such a component of advertisingas a «slogan». However, Ukrainian legislation does not establish special requirementsfor the use and protection of slogans in advertising.It is determined that individual elements of advertising can receive independentlegal protection both by copyright (in particular, drawings, animations, photographs,musical accompaniment, fonts, design), and outside of copyright. For example, an advertisingslogan, the subject to the requirements of the law, may acquire legal protectionas a sign for goods and services. At the same time, such legal protection of individualelements of the internal structure of advertising does not change its protectionas an integral object of copyright, but can serve as an additional guarantee of the protectionand protection of advertising in the event of a conflict of interest requiring ajudicial decision.

Keywords: intellectual property, artificial intelligence, inventor, software, examination,patent, digital transformation The dynamics of development of the worldmarket of artificial intelligence (AI), patent activity in this field, problematic issuesarising in connection with the patenting of inventions created using AI are studied.Aspects of doctrine formation and policy development in the field of intellectual property(IP) and AI are considered. Features of examination of patentability of inventionscreated with the use of AI in different jurisdictions (EPO, USA, Germany, China), foreignlegislation, doctrinal positions and case law in this field are analysed. Accordingto the analysis of the Artificial Inventor project, DABUS applications indicating theAI system as the inventor, submitted in 17 jurisdictions, were mostly rejected at thelevel of intellectual property offices and as a result of court appeals. In general, theapplicant failed to persuade the IP courts and agencies with his arguments, despitedifferences in national law and patent systems. The main provisions of the draft law «On Amendments to the Law of Ukraine» OnProtection of Rights to Inventions and Utility Models «on the regulation of relationsarising in relation to inventions and utility models created using artificial intelligence» are considered. It is concluded that the Law on the Protection of Rights to Inventionsand Utility Models excludes computer programs from patented objects. Theirminority is stated in the total number of filed applications and issued patents. Between1980 and 2018, only 740 such applications were published (1.26% of the total).The rules for compiling, submitting and reviewing an application for an invention(utility model) in Ukraine are outdated and do not reflect aspects of AI. Only a comprehensiveapproach (changes in legislation and improvement of expertise) will solvethis problem.
