Blockchain Web Data Ownership and Access Rules for AI Collection
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The unauthorized use of web data for AI model training is a growing concern, with no established guidelines for data ownership verification and fair usage fees, leading to infringement of rightful ownership and copyright.
Innovation Solution
A blockchain-based system for web data ownership and access management that utilizes a URI authentication protocol and decentralized identifiers (DIDs) to register ownership and access rules, enabling transparent data usage tracking and payment of usage fees through smart contracts.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If web data is used for AI model training without established guidelines, then AI model development can proceed rapidly, but data ownership rights are infringed and copyright is violated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by establishing blockchain-based ownership registration and access rule documentation before data usage occurs. Website management devices submit transactions to create URI authentication documents that record ownership information and access rules in advance, enabling AI data agents to verify rights before collecting data, thus preventing infringement while maintaining development progress
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces blockchain technology as an intermediary mechanism between data owners and AI data collectors. The blockchain network verifies administrator digital signatures and stores authentication documents, serving as a trusted mediator that objectively confirms ownership and access rules without requiring direct negotiation between parties, thereby resolving the contradiction between rapid development and ownership protection
2Ease of operation
If traditional data collection methods are used without blockchain verification, then data access is simple and fast, but there is no transparent mechanism for verifying ownership or paying usage fees
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the blockchain system universal by designing it to handle multiple functions within a single framework: ownership verification, access rule validation, usage fee calculation, and payment processing. The URI authentication document serves as a multi-functional credential that encapsulates all necessary information for transparent data usage management, maintaining ease of operation while preventing information loss
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements feedback mechanisms where AI data agents must retrieve and verify authentication documents, calculate usage fees based on recorded rules, and submit remittance transactions. The blockchain network provides feedback by verifying digital signatures and confirming transactions, creating a closed-loop system that ensures ownership information transparency while maintaining operational simplicity
3Productivity
If AI data agents collect data without recording usage details, then data collection efficiency is high, but there is no tracking mechanism for usage fees and ownership compensation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables self-service by designing the system where AI data agents automatically perform verification and payment actions without manual intervention. Agents autonomously retrieve authentication documents, calculate fees based on recorded rules, and submit remittance transactions to blockchain addresses. The blockchain network automatically verifies these actions, creating a self-service ecosystem that maintains high collection efficiency while ensuring proper tracking and compensation
