The rapid development of artificial intelligence technologies will remain in the focus of attention of governments around the world. There is an urgent need to create a regulatory framework that will be aimed at regulating the preservation of the copyright and licensing system.
Thus, a group of writers filed a lawsuit in the federal court of New York accusing Meta (META.O), Microsoft (MSFT.O) and Bloomberg of using their works to train artificial intelligence systems without obtaining permission. The lawsuit states that the companies used the Books3 dataset, which the plaintiffs say contains thousands of pirated books, to train their language models to respond to human prompts. The authors said that the companies "illegally made large profits" from their books. "We are not against innovation, we are against the theft behind innovation," the plaintiffs' lawyers said.
Copyright holders, including artists and other authors, have also recently filed lawsuits against major tech companies over the unauthorized use of their content to train generative artificial intelligence systems. AI companies argue that their use of data is protected by the fair use doctrine of US copyright law.
Currently, the European Union countries are actively working on the Artificial Intelligence Act, which aims to eliminate the risks of artificial intelligence by developing obligations and requirements aimed at protecting the fundamental rights of citizens. It is expected that the adoption of the law will be a significant impetus for the regulation and reform of artificial intelligence technologies worldwide.
For reference. As Ukraine follows the European course of development and adapts its national legislation to the EU acquis, the Ministry of Digital Transformation has developed a roadmap for the implementation of artificial intelligence regulation in Ukraine.
