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

The consultation seeks views on a package of measures which seek to promote growth and investment in both the creative industries and AI sector. We aim to balance the interests of AI developers and rights holders and provide the legal certainty to boost growth and investment across both sectors.

The evidence we receive will inform our impact assessment of the measures, including in relation to investment.

The consultation closes on 25 February.
