AI-generated products increasingly contest conventional notions of authorship and inventorship, which have traditionally centered on human creators. Current inconsistencies in national and regional intellectual property regulations do not adequately address the intricacies of AI-driven innovation, leading to regulatory voids that compromise legal clarity and security for inventors and investors. Divergences in intellectual property protection legislation across countries impede international cooperation and equitable access to technology, engendering ethical and social dilemmas regarding ownership, accountability, and the economic concentration of AI-generated intellectual property. This article promotes the establishment of a universally standardized intellectual property framework that acknowledges AI-generated contributions while safeguarding human innovation. Principal proposals encompass novel classifications for AI-assisted inventions, established criteria for inventorship, and fair allocation of economic and creative benefits. The discourse highlights ethical considerations including justice, transparency, and the societal advantages resulting from AI-driven innovations. An integrated and inclusive intellectual property governance framework is crucial for facilitating equitable global growth in the AI-driven economy, while protecting the rights of current stakeholders and encouraging technological and social advancement. Keyphrases: AI-generated Innovation, Global Standardization, Intellectual Property Governance
