This is incorrect, "work for hire" only helps determine who owns the copyright on something, not whether that thing is actually copyrightable.

  GP is suggesting that the copyright should belong with the robot, I'm pointing out that work for hire would mean that it does not belong with the robot.

    Surely it would fall foul of anti-slavery legislation though? Unless the Robot is paid?

      Perhaps more analogous to employing a minor (without pay). But who is the guardian of the robot who can approve their employment?
