Cross-party committees of MPs have urged the government to ensure fair compensation for creators whose work is used to train AI models. They criticized plans that would require creators to opt out of data usage, highlighting the need for greater transparency about the data employed in generative AI. Caroline Dinenage, chair of one committee, likened the situation to allowing burglars to raid homes unless explicitly prohibited. The MPs call for policies that protect creators and improve clarity on how their works are employed by AI companies.
The MPs argued there needed to be more transparency around the vast amounts of data used to train generative AI models.
Caroline Dinenage stated that making creative works fair game unless creators opt out is akin to burglars being allowed into your house.
There needs to be tougher requirements on transparency of the data being used to train AI models, so creators know where to seek remuneration.
The letter to ministers urged the government to improve transparency around training data to enable creators to identify the use of their works.
