One of the most important technological developments in the history of humanity is artificial intelligence. The evolution of this branch of computer science has led to the development of devices capable of replicating human cognitive processes related to a particular area of knowledge, which has allowed their adoption in various industries. In this sense, one of the most important applications of this technology is the creation of new material for the artistic sector. This represented a particularly complex environment for the regulatory framework specifically copyright. This research addresses this scenario from a novel perspective: while providing these devices with the ability to adapt their operation according to the legal status of the works to be processed, this approach complements their operation with elements contained in the digital scenario. For the above, a hypothetical-deductive and systemic-structural-functional methodology is used, which allows analyzing the role of technology, its impact from a socio-technological perspective and its adoption as a platform for the regulation of digital environments. Finally, a proposal will be presented where intelligent devices have the ability to adapt their operation according to the legal status of the operation to be carried out.
