Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:
To ask His Majesty's Government, with reference to their consultation on copyright and artificial intelligence (CP1205), what assessment they have made of the effectiveness of rights reservation mechanisms introduced by the EU.
The Government published a consultation on Copyright and AI in December 2024.
This consultation is seeking views on a similar approach to the EU’s, which many AI firms and right holders are already familiar with. However, we recognise that there is more work to do on technical standards and transparency before a rights reservation model can be considered workable for right holders and AI developers alike. We will use responses to the consultation to inform work on this detail and bring forward firm proposals.
The consultation closes on 25 February.
