We need transparency and a clear statement about copyright along the lines of these amendments. We absolutely should not expect artists to have to opt out. AI developers must be transparent about the identity and purposes of their crawlers and have separate crawlers for distinct purposes. Unless news publishers and the broader creative industries can retain control over their data, making UK copyright law enforceable, AI firms will be free to scrape the web without remunerating creators. This will not only reduce investment in trusted journalism but ultimately harm innovation in the AI sector.
