Dreyfus analyzes the question of whether artificial intelligence can be legally protected as software under French law. The article examines existing legal provisions governing software and intellectual property rights and discusses their applicability to AI technologies. It highlights current debates and uncertainties surrounding the classification and protection of AI systems.

The piece suggests that while AI may be covered under software regulations, specific challenges remain regarding liability, ownership, and usage rights. It calls for clearer legal definitions and frameworks to address the evolving nature of AI technologies in the French legal context.
