Arts: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what representations he has received from creative industry stakeholders on the economic impact of generative AI.
Answered by Feryal Clark
The Government published a consultation on 17 December 2024, seeking views on several topics relating to the interaction between copyright and artificial intelligence (AI). This included seeking evidence on the economic impact of its proposals.
The consultation closed on 25 February 2025 and the Government received over 11,500 responses. Ministers have also met with representatives of the creative industries and AI sectors to discuss the impact of generative AI.
The Government’s priority now is to review all responses to the consultation, to help inform its approach to copyright and AI. The Government will set out its proposals in due course.
