To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, if he will bring forward legislative proposals to ensure that generative AI developers are obliged to disclose the use of creative works in AI training.

Answer

Feryal Clark

The Government’s consultation on copyright and AI closed on 25 February. This sought views on a proposal to require AI model developers to be more transparent about how they obtain and use copyright works in their training.

Our priority now is to review the evidence from the consultation which will inform the Government response, including any legislative proposals.
