AIPPI Resolution Q295: Copyright and AI

AI training and copyright

Can AI be trained on protected works?

Closer to only with permission or pay

Training on protected works only with authorisation or under an applicable exception

What it says

Adopted by AIPPI's national groups on the basis of 39 national reports, the resolution's general rule is that using protected works to train AI should be allowed only with authorisation or under an applicable exception. It also addresses transparency over training data, liability, remedies and AI outputs, to which existing infringement rules should apply.

The world's largest IP association backs consent or a clear exception, not free training.
