Unlike many countries, the UK’s Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 expressly provides for copyright protection of computer-generated works that do not have a human creator. The law designates that where a work is "generated by computer in circumstances where there is no human author19", the author of such a work is “the person by whom the arrangements necessary for the creation of the work are undertaken20”. Protection lasts for 50 years from the date the work is made.
