According to the Guardian newspaper, British Technology Minister Peter Kyle no longer considers the controversial withdrawal plan as its preferential option and is now reviewing alternative options. According to the plan, artificial intelligence companies could use copyright works to teach their models unless the owner of the work explicitly opposed.
The proposal faced a wave of opposition from prominent artists; Including Paul McCartney and Tom Stapard, who joined the campaign, called for a stop. Critics say the implementation of such a plan means violating the rights of content creators and opening the way for the “digital plunder”.
“We are listening to the consultations and we are determined to make the right decision,” said Peter Kyle. “We do not go back, but we are looking for progress.” He emphasized that creating a balance between the growth of the artificial intelligence industry and the protection of the rights of creative industries is the priority of the government.
One of the proposals under consideration is the expansion of official agreements between AI companies and the creators of the works to maintain the material rights of the creators. However, digital law activists are concerned that the government will ultimately tend to complete the complete freedom of data use regardless of the current law.
“I am glad that the government no longer considers the plan to be a priority; But if the government is really looking for a significant change, it must now and explicitly defend the rights of the owners. “
These changes are part of the “data bill” that will be voted on next week. Peter Kyle added amendments to the bill on Thursday to satisfy critics; Including the economic evaluation of various options such as the withdrawal system or the licensing system.
In addition to the subject of artificial intelligence, the bill is now involved in other political debate; Including suggestions from different parties to ban the presence of adolescents under the age of 5 on social networks as well as the gender of people based on birth in the digital authentication process. Sources close to the Labor Party have described the measures as “a clear attempt to re -flaminate gender tensions”.
On the other hand, some experts have warned that the complete implementation of copyright reforms may last by the end of the current parliamentary term in year 2. This has raised concern for media activists. “The world is moving at a staggering pace, but the government is slowly moving,” said Owen Merdit, CEO of the British News Media Association. “This delay can cause a major blow to the legal foundation of copyright.”
Kidron also emphasized that a four -year delay in determining the legal status of artificial intelligence for content creators is “extremely inadequate” and could lead to complete destruction of the creative industries.
