KR21 Policy Paper on AI
Knowledge Rights 21 (KR21) has published a document explaining the KR21 policy on artificial intelligence (Policy Paper on AI).
In the blog entitled Undermining Scientific Research, which accompanied the publication of the document on artificial intelligence, many questions are raised, such as the use of licenses to restrict universities from researching artificial intelligence; ending project data deletion requests that undermine the transparency and interpretability of artificial intelligence; the requirement to maximize inputs to support safe artificial intelligence and focus on regulating outcomes where negative issues may arise; and others. We invite you to read the entire matter at the link.
ODIPI is organizing ERA KR21 Conference: Barriers and Incentives for Open Science in the Copyright Law that will take place on 2 December, 2024 at Hotel Four Points by Sheraton (Mons) in Ljubljana and also online.

“Can copyright bring artificial intelligence to its knees? Which other circumstances may cause that the “making” of generative AI can dramatically change in the (near) future. This short paper presents potential challenges that copyright poses to the training of the machines on large amount of data. Different jurisdictions address these issues differently. In the USA the legality of these activities is tested in several court cases. Do gentlemen’s agreements and pragmatic symbiosis known from the “search engines business model” provide sufficient basis and/or incentive for the business model of “making” generative AI business model as well?
