“Unlocking Innovation: Japan’s Bold Move to Grant AI Re-Use Rights Could Transform the Digital Copyright Landscape!”
“There is no consistent standard for how copyrighted materials can be used in AI technologies across borders from country to country,” said Tracey Armstrong, President and CEO of CCC. “A license is the best way to comply with copyright laws, avoid potentially lengthy and costly legal disputes, and ensure that the current and future uses of works and of the outputs of the AI do not create legal and business risks for organizations.”
“Surveys indicate that knowledge workers across industries are adopting AI tools and using them with published content for a variety of tasks such as summarization, information extraction, and automated reviews,” said Toshimichi Ishijima, Secretary General, JAC. “In the absence of an appropriate license, these activities create the potential for copyright infringement risk.”
