The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what transparency obligations his Department plans to introduce on generative AI developers.

Answered by Feryal Clark

The Government published a consultation on Copyright and AI in December 2024.

This consultation seeks views on a number of issues relating to copyright and AI, including on how to achieve proportionate levels of transparency from AI developers over their training sources.

The success of any new approach to copyright and AI will depend on stronger trust between AI developers and rights holders. That is why transparency is one of the three primary objectives underpinning the Government’s approach to this work.

The consultation closes on 25 February.
