Regulating Transformative Technology in The Quantum Age: Intellectual Property, Standardization & Sustainable Innovation

摘要: The behavior of nature at the smallest scale can be strange and counterintuitive. In addition to unique physical characteristics, quantum technology has many legal aspects. this article, we first explain what entails. Next, discuss implementation areas application, including computing, sensing internet. Through an interdisciplinary lens, then focus on intellectual property (‘IP’), standardization, ethical, & social aspects (‘ELSA’) as well horizontal industry-specific regulation transformative technology. The Quantum Age raises questions. For example, which existing legislation applies technology? What types IP rights vested in components a scalable computer? Are there sufficient market-set innovation incentives for development dissemination software hardware structures? Or is need open source ecosystems, enrichment public domain even democratization Should create global safety, security interoperability standards make them mandatory each area application? way enhance artificial intelligence (‘AI’) that legal, ethical technically robust? The article argues pervasiveness asks holistic view regulatory framework, balances interests stakeholders society large. It demands agile legislative system adapt quickly changing circumstances societal needs. How policy makers realize these objectives regulate internet socially responsible manner? Regulation addresses risks proportional manner, whilst optimizing benefits cutting edge Without hindering sustainable innovation, apportionment rights, responsibilities duties care? are effects standardization certification property, competition market-entrance quantum-startups? Moreover, culturally sensitive issues play role regulations? Would it good step link governance AI hybrids Trustworthy principles? Do quantum’s different properties call additional core rules? Is wise embed our democratic values into architecture systems, by Technology Design? explores possible answers tantalizing questions.
