Artificial Intelligence: Intellectual Property
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what steps her Department is taking to help protect intellectual property rights in the training of AI models.
Answered by Kanishka Narayan
The government recognises the importance of protecting intellectual property rights for creators and rightsholders. It published a report and impact assessment on AI and copyright on 18 March outlining the steps it is taking on the use of copyright works in AI training.
This includes publishing a review of the mechanisms available for creators to control their works online, establishing a taskforce on labelling AI-generated content, launching a working group on independent and smaller creative organisations, and launching a consultation on ‘digital replicas’.
We continue to listen to the views and perspectives of a range of stakeholders on these issues.
