This research project investigates the convergence of artificial intelligence, intellectual property law, and ethical considerations in modern animal agriculture. By developing advanced AI models to monitor and interpret livestock behavior and health, the project aims to enhance animal welfare and promote sustainable farming practices. It explores the legal implications surrounding data ownership and intellectual property rights of AI algorithms used in animal care. Ethical issues such as privacy, consent, and the impact of technology on farmers and animals are central to the study. The goal is to create a framework that balances technological innovation with legal and ethical responsibilities, advancing both animal welfare and the agricultural industry.
