Artificial Intelligence: Bookshops
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the copyright and transparency implications of major booksellers selling fiction generated by artificial intelligence systems.
- Answer
-
It is a matter for individual booksellers how they source books. However, the Government recognises the importance of clarity for right holders and consumers in understanding the origin of AI generated content.
We are currently preparing a report on copyright and artificial intelligence, for publication next year. This report will take into account a range of views and evidence.
