conditions for the disposition of copyright in such objects and their constituent elements. It is established that AI agents may consist of objects eligible for copyright protection, objects not subject to such protection, as well as objects protected under a sui generis regime. The article proposes a definition of an AI agent through the lens of copyright law. A structural approach to AI agents based on typical technical modules is applied, and potential objects of copyright and sui generis rights that may arise within such modules are identified. Typical legal relationships concerning AI agents and their constituent components that may qualify as copyright-protected objects are analysed. The study also establishes the high variability of legal mechanisms through which the components of AI agents may be obtained, including the use of different types of contracts and licenses with specific terms and restrictions. Such variability may result in limitations on the disposition of economic copyright in the respective copyright-protected components of an AI agent and, consequently, on the disposition of the AI agent as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Keywords: <\/strong>artificial intelligence, copyright, AI agent, autonomous agent, AI system, sui generis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Deng, X., Gu, Y., Zheng, B., Chen, S., Stevens, S., Wang, B., Sun, H., &#038; Su, Y.
