RESUMEN ESPECÍFICO

Derechos de autor e IA generativa

El Parlamento Europeo aborda los desafíos y las oportunidades relacionados con los derechos de autor en el contexto de la inteligencia artificial generativa.

  • La propiedad intelectual es un derecho fundamental en virtud del artículo 17 de la Carta de los Derechos Fundamentales de la UE.
  • La IA generativa crea contenidos imitando la creatividad humana, a menudo utilizando obras protegidas.
  • Los derechos de autor confieren derechos exclusivos para reproducir, adaptar y distribuir obras.
  • Una remuneración justa por el uso de contenido protegido es esencial para la sostenibilidad de la industria creativa en Europa.

Desafíos jurídicos de la IA generativa

Los desafíos jurídicos alrededor de la IA generativa requieren una aclaración sobre el uso de obras protegidas.

  • El uso de contenido protegido para entrenar modelos de IA enfrenta problemas de legalidad.
  • La Directiva sobre derechos de autor no cubre específicamente el entrenamiento de la IA generativa.
  • Es necesaria una evaluación exhaustiva del marco legal actual para abordar la inseguridad jurídica.

Transparencia y responsabilidad de los proveedores de IA

La transparencia en el uso de los contenidos protegidos por parte de los proveedores de IA es crucial para proteger los derechos de autor.

  • Los proveedores de IA deben proporcionar una lista detallada del contenido protegido utilizado para el entrenamiento.
  • Un registro centralizado gestionado por la European Union Intellectual Property Office, EUIPO podría facilitar la gestión de las exclusiones voluntarias.
  • En caso de incumplimiento de las obligaciones de transparencia debería dar lugar a una presunción de infracción de los derechos de autor.

Impacto sobre la industria creativa europea

La IA generativa plantea riesgos para la competitividad y la viabilidad de la industria creativa en Europa.

  • Los sistemas de IA generativa pueden competir directamente con las obras de los creadores sin compensación.
  • Se propone una remuneración inmediata del 5-7% de la facturación global para equilibrar los intereses.
  • La protección de los derechos de autor es esencial para preservar la diversidad y la calidad de la información.

Necesidad de un marco jurídico adaptado

Es necesario un marco jurídico específico para la IA generativa a fin de equilibrar la innovación y la protección de los derechos.

  • Se recomienda una excepción específica a los derechos de autor para la formación de la IA generativa.
  • Debe garantizarse la compatibilidad con las directivas vigentes para evitar conflictos legales.
  • Es crucial reevaluar el principio de territorialidad para proteger los contenidos europeos a nivel mundial.

Urgencia de un marco jurídico claro

La situación actual genera una importante inseguridad jurídica que requiere medidas inmediatas para establecer un marco jurídico claro.

  • La Comisión debe actuar sin esperar a que se revise la legislación vigente.
  • La creación de valor agregado se está desplazando a otras regiones ante la falta de una normativa clara.
  • Es necesario regular los conflictos de intereses para reducir las tensiones.

Licencias y transparencia para la IA

Es fundamental que los desarrolladores de IA puedan obtener licencias de forma sencilla y transparente.

  • Las licencias deben ser accesibles digitalmente para facilitar su adquisición.
  • Los creadores deben poder decidir sobre el uso de sus obras y deben contar con una cláusula de exclusión voluntaria.
  • La cláusula de exclusión debe estar estandarizada y ser legible por máquina para facilitar su reconocimiento.

Registro de cláusulas de exclusión

Un registro europeo de cláusulas de exclusión podría simplificar el proceso para los desarrolladores de IA.

  • La EUIPO debería gestionar este registro para identificar las obras protegidas.
  • Solo las obras con una cláusula de exclusión o las obras registradas pueden protegerse para este tipo de uso.
  • Se podría vincular un proceso de licencia a este registro, creando una "ventanilla deben cumplir con la obligación de transparencia en relación con el uso de única".

Obligación de transparencia para los desarrolladores

Los desarrolladores de IA contenido protegido deben respetar una obligación de transparencia concerniente el uso de los contenidos protegidos

  • Ellos deben proporcionar una lista detallada de los contenidos utilizados para los nuevos tipos de uso.
  • El resumen actual del Reglamento de IA se considera insuficiente para aclarar el uso de los contenidos.
  • En caso de secretos comerciales, se podría recurrir a un intermediario para informar a los creadores.

Adaptación de los derechos de autor a la tecnología

Los derechos de autor deben adaptarse a los avances tecnológicos y armonizarse a nivel europeo.

  • Es necesaria una mayor armonización de las legislaciones nacionales para afrontar los retos actuales.
  • El uso indebido y la manipulación de la información deben considerarse cuidadosamente en el marco de la legislación.
  • La protección de las obras debe incluir medidas contra el uso no autorizado en el contexto numérico.

Context

A       whereas the right to property, including intellectual property, is enshrined as a fundamental right in Article 17 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union;

B.      whereas the European Union faces the strategic challenge of lagging behind international developments in the field of artificial intelligence; whereas it is therefore essential to promote, rather than impede, the advancement of AI technologies within the Union in order to safeguard Europe’s technological sovereignty, competitiveness, and capacity for innovation;

C.      whereas copyright and related rights come into effect automatically and confer extensive exclusive rights, including those to reproduce works and other subject matter and adapt, distribute and communicate them to the public;

D.      whereas generative AI (GenAI) is a type of artificial intelligence that, unlike traditional AI systems that only classify or predict, creates content, such as text, images, music, videos and code, often mimicking human creativity, thereby relying on pre-existing content, including copyright-protected materials;

E.      whereas the development, the deployment and the use of artificial intelligence must be fully compliant with the existing legal framework; whereas it is unacceptable that such technological advancements disregard established rights, in particular those enshrined in copyright law;

F.      whereas the key legal questions about the interplay between GenAI and copyright and related rights include whether the new kind of use of copyrighted works and other subject matter in training datasets is lawful under EU law and what the status of AI-generated content should be;

G.      whereas the reference to the CDSM Directive in the AI Act is inadequate and fails to provide an appropriate and proportionate solution; whereas copyright and related rights, as fundamental rights enshrined in the Charter of fundamental rights of the European Union, are not overridden by the AI Act;

H.      whereas fair remuneration for the use of protected content is the backbone of the creative industry in Europe; whereas the use of content protected by copyright and related rights as training data for generative AI models, without remuneration to rights holders, creates a systemic imbalance in the copyright ecosystem to their detriment, thereby undermining the economic sustainability of the creative sector in the European Union, particularly given that, at present, rights holders cannot easily or effectively exercise their right to opt out from the exception provided for in Article 4 of the CDSM Directive, nor verify whether their opt-out has been respected;

I.       whereas ensuring proper enforcement of the law and a level playing field across the Union requires that European rules on copyright and related rights apply uniformly to all AI providers deploying products or offering services within the European Union, irrespective of their place of establishment and of where any use of protected content took place prior to such deployment or offer;

GenAI training

J.       whereas Article 4 of Directive (EU) 2019/790 on copyright and related rights in the Digital Single Market (CDSM Directive) introduced an exception for the reproduction and the extraction of works and other subject matter for the purpose of text and data mining (TDM), which, under Article 2 of that Directive, is defined as ‘any automated analytical technique aimed at analysing text and data in digital form in order to generate information [...]’; whereas Article 4 was neither drafted nor intended to regulate the specific practices involved in AI training;

K.      whereas this new and specific form of use (GenAI training) requires a clarification of the legal conditions under which such training may be conducted;

L.      whereas high-quality and comprehensive training datasets are essential for the effective development of GenAI systems and to secure high-quality and trustworthy outputs of GenAI systems; whereas enabling the lawful use of such datasets within the European Union is therefore crucial to fostering innovation, ensuring technological sovereignty, and maintaining the Union’s competitiveness in the rapidly evolving global AI landscape;

M.     whereas the upcoming launch of the EUIPO Copyright Knowledge Centre would represent a timely and commendable initiative aimed at strengthening the interface between copyright and emerging technologies, particularly GenAI;

N.      whereas, in addition to a standardised machine-readable opt-out, rights holders should also have the possibility to register such opt-out in a centralised registry, using a single technological standard and in machine-readable format, potentially managed by the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), thereby enabling the effective exclusion of registered works from automated data crawling;

O.      whereas any GenAI provider should ensure full and detailed transparency concerning all copyright-protected content used to train that system, irrespective of the jurisdiction in which the copyright-relevant acts underlying the training were performed; whereas this transparency shall consist in an itemised list identifying each copyright-protected content used for training; whereas the same requirement should apply mutatis mutandis to any subsequent use of content for inference, retrieval-augmented generation or fine-tuning not only by providers of AI models, as currently stipulated by Article 53 AIA, but also by providers or deployers of AI systems;

P.      whereas such transparency could be facilitated through a trusted intermediary, such as the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), which would be responsible for notifying rights holders of the use of their content, thereby enabling them to assert claims in relation to its use for training; such an intermediary should be endowed with the necessary powers and resources to assess whether providers and deployers comply fully with the transparency obligations;

Q.      whereas, as an alternative to the aforementioned EUIPO register, transparency could also be achieved by enabling rights holders to watermark their works and other protected subject matter, and by requiring AI providers to make available search tools that allow for the detection of such watermarks among the materials used for training;

R.      whereas, in addition to the obligation of full transparency concerning copyright-protected works and other protected subject matter, there is a need to establish a mechanism whereby, under certain conditions, the failure by AI providers or deployers to provide complete transparency shall give rise to an irrebuttable presumption that any relevant copyrighted work or other protected subject matter has been used for training purposes, thereby triggering all applicable legal consequences under Union and national law for the infringement of copyright or related rights; whereas, where a court finds in favour of a rights holder on the basis of either such a presumption or of submitted evidence, all reasonable and proportionate legal costs and other expenses shall be borne by the AI provider;

S.      whereas there is a knowledge gap among GenAI providers, especially smaller firms, regarding their copyright obligations under EU law;

T.      whereas the press sector holds a vital role in safeguarding democracy and the democratic structure within the European Union; whereas it is essential to ensure that GenAI models and systems do not engage in selective processing that favours certain publications over others, thereby preserving the plurality and impartiality of information; whereas GenAI models and systems must be designed to incorporate and consider the full spectrum of press publications to uphold fundamental democratic values of diversity and fairness in public discourse; whereas there is a need to establish clear quality standards for GenAI models and systems;

GenAI output

U.      whereas transparency regarding the output generated by artificial intelligence systems is essential to enable proper classification of works as ‘human-created’ or otherwise; whereas such classification entails significant legal consequences, including for the applicability of copyright protection and the determination of rights and liabilities;

V.      whereas the generation of outputs, characteristic of GenAI, can infringe the rights of reproduction, of making available to the public, or of communication to the public; whereas the TDM exception as provided for in article 4 of the CSDSM does not cover the right of making available to the public or the right of communication to the public;

X.      whereas, when it comes to the legal treatment of GenAI outputs, EU copyright law remains grounded in the principles of human authorship; whereas according to the settled case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, the concept of a ‘work’ entails two cumulative conditions: first, it must be an original subject matter that reflects the author’s own intellectual creation; second, that creation must be expressed in a manner that makes it identifiable with sufficient precision and objectivity;

Y.      whereas inconsistent international regulation regarding the copyright eligibility of AI-generated content poses a risk to the global coherence of intellectual property law and may give rise to regulatory arbitrage or undermine the competitiveness of the Union’s creative and AI sectors; whereas international convergence and the establishment of a global regulatory framework would provide a more effective and coherent alternative to the current fragmentation of legal approaches;

Z.      whereas, to the extent permitted by international law, the existing principle of territoriality needs to be adapted for the training of GenAI systems in order to ensure that training with European content is subject to European law even if it is realised outside the EU;

1.       Recommends that the Commission, independently of its planned review of the copyright framework and the CDSM Directive and without presupposing the need for legislative revision, urgently conduct a thorough assessment of whether the existing EU copyright acquis adequately addresses the legal uncertainty and competitive effects associated with the use of protected works and other subject matter for the training of generative AI systems, as well as the dissemination of AI-generated content that may substitute human-created expression;

2.       Further recommends that such assessment aims to uphold a framework in which fair remuneration mechanisms enable the generation of the resources needed for European artistic and creative production to thrive in the context of AI-driven global transformation;

3.       Notes the use of generative AI systems that rely on protected content without authorisation from, or compensation to, the rights holders affected by such use, particularly when integrated into search engines or other digital services that enable the generation, often in real time and at marginal cost, of content that imitates or directly draws upon original works and other protected subject matter on which the models were trained or that was scraped, including in real time, by such models; is alarmed that these practices may result in the provision of products and services that directly compete with those of the rights holders;

4.       Calls on the Commission to immediately impose a remuneration obligation on providers of general-purpose AI models and systems in respect of the novel use of content protected by copyright or related rights, with such obligation applying until the reforms envisaged in this report are enacted;

5.       Encourages the Commission to coordinate efforts on raising awareness on copyright among AI developers, which may include compliance checklists, legal and technological toolkits, and technical guides;

6.       Supports the clarification of the TDM exception under Article 4 CDSM as regards the main flaws and ambiguities detected thus far in its application, especially as concerns the establishment of a clear machine-readable standard for the opt-out and the concept of ‘lawful access’;

7.       Believes that a legal framework for GenAI should be established either through the introduction of a dedicated exception to the exclusive rights to reproduction and extraction, distinct from that provided for TDM under Article 4 of the CDSM Directive, or by expanding the scope of that provision to explicitly encompass the training of GenAI, which is currently not covered; stresses that rights holders shall have the right to opt out through a standardised, machine-readable mechanism;

8.       Recommends that the Commission ensures the compatibility of this new GenAI legal framework with the three-step test of Article 5(5) InfoSoc Directive;

9.       Recommends assigning the EUIPO responsibility for setting up and managing a central register of opt-outs and, where necessary, for mediating the licensing process, so as to streamline relations between GenAI providers and rights holders, establishing a workable, innovation-friendly framework that supports the Union’s competitiveness without unduly hindering the development of AI technologies; further recommends that both opt-out declarations and licence offers be recorded in machine-readable form in the same register;

10.     Calls on the Commission to propose the full, actionable transparency and source documentation by providers and deployers of general-purpose AI models and systems, with regard to the use of any copyright-protected work or other protected subject matter for any purpose, including for inferencing, retrieval-augmented generation, or fine-tuning, taking into due account the need to protect trade secrets and confidential business information;

11.     Calls on the Commission to propose the establishment of an irrebuttable presumption that, for any general-purpose AI (GenAI) model or system placed on the Union market, works and other subject matter protected by copyright or related rights have been used for its training where the statutory transparency obligations set out in this resolution have not been fully complied with; further recommends that, where a rights holder succeeds in legal proceedings either on the basis of this presumption or through submitted evidence, any reasonable and proportionate legal costs and other expenses incurred in enforcing such rights shall be borne by the provider of the AI model or system;

12.     Insists that AI-generated content should remain ineligible for copyright protection, and that the public domain status of such works be clearly determined;

13.     Calls on the Commission to explore measures to counter the infringement of the rights of reproduction, of making available to the public and of communication to the public through the production of GenAI outputs;

14.     Instructs its President to forward this resolution to the Council, the Commission, and the governments and parliaments of the Member States.


 

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

With the ever-advancing digital and technological development, notably as regards AI and the so-called Generative Large Language Models, some rights such as copyright, the right to privacy and the right to non-discrimination are being devalued as it is becoming extremely difficult to enforce them without an enormous legal and financial risk to the rights holders.

This creates huge legal uncertainties for all parties involved. However, if the European legislator, through its lengthy procedures and a lack of courage, continues to refuse to tackle the crucial issues head on, the EU and its actors will always be left at a disadvantage and further dependencies will be created.

Therefore, the principle that must apply is that technological developments must respect existing laws while, on the other hand, existing laws must not hinder technological developments. This urgently calls for workable solutions, which are currently not being provided by market participants on either side, with technological developments colliding with copyright, such that they appear no longer compatible with each other. It is likely that perfect, comprehensive solutions will no longer be possible.

For this reason, the European legislator needs to strike a fair balance between the interests of all stakeholders at the earliest opportunity. It would also be desirable to find a permanent workable solution to avoid having to protect copyright claims against new technologies every five or six years. A ‘General Copyright Protection Regulation’, akin to the General Data Protection Regulation, could be helpful in this regard. The AI liability proposal ought to have provided procedurally swifter solutions. However, owing to a lack of strategic long-term vision on the part of various actors, this is now to be withdrawn (this being probably legally dubious) so that legal uncertainty will persist.

This report therefore is an attempt to bring a workable balance between new technology and copyright closer. This will require a combination of legal, technical and technological solutions.

The political context for the EU is not easy because:

1)   in geopolitical terms, guiding values are diverging in the ‘West’;

2)   European AI development is severely lagging behind and needs to be promoted without additional ‘obstacles’;

3)   the current added value in digital development is being generated by large tech companies in the US, to the detriment of the European creative sector.

This report therefore also aims to support and promote the development of AI in Europe. After all, Europe needs AI to drive the digitalisation that is essential in our globalised world. The opportunities for European progress are immense and must under no circumstances be left untapped. However, we also want AI systems in Europe that meet certain requirements as regards quality and trustworthiness, and this can only be achieved with quality data belonging to content creators.

At the same time, we also want to preserve copyright protection for the works of our creative sectors and cultural professionals. European culture constitutes a fundamental part of our identity. European added value in the creative sectors is immense and it should not be possible to use it without compensation. This novel use of protected content (training data, data used for generative output) must therefore be remunerated. Only thus can European cultural professionals create the economic basis for the generation of further content.

In this context, the copyright-related rights relating to the content of press publishers play an additional special role for our European understanding of democracy and the rule of law. Freedom of the press, freedom of opinion and freedom of information must under no circumstances be undermined or subjugated by artificial intelligence, in particular where, as is currently the case, digital access and digital ‘distribution’ of information are increasingly taking place through search engines and AI and, in the case of generative AI, are also influenced by bots, all this being in the hands of a few companies. The control of information and disinformation, whether bot-driven or not, as well as deepfakes and the resulting interference in elections or influencing of public opinion, is extremely dangerous. Plurality and diversification of opinion in this context must therefore be guaranteed in the form of an independent press. This means that the processing of content in an automated and generative manner must trigger a commensurate compensation. However, it is also important for press publishers that they remain identifiable to users. This may require an obligation to cite sources.

In this connection, the comparable situation of so-called paywalls, the data behind which is not always solely copyright-protected material – though at times it is – should also be examined.

However, under the current situation, it must also be assumed that a slowly developing licensing market will no longer encompass all market participants. This means that not every press publisher or not all copyright-protected content is needed to provide training material for a fee, so that market participants lacking in bargaining power may no longer be taken into consideration if they demand compensation. A solution, if it is even necessary at this point, will probably only be possible by means of flat-rate fees or a stronger organisation to pool bargaining power. It is, however, questionable whether all parties would want to embark on such a path.

While this should mainly be left to the market participants, the question arises – given the generative AI systems that are offered worldwide –as to whether only ‘global licences’ will in future play a role in licensing.

Since this ‘copyright-protected’ data has been used for years (at least since late 2022) without a licence or other authorisation from the creators, consideration must also be given to the extent to which compensation should also be paid retroactively.

In any event, the European legislator or the European Commission should, pending the introduction of an appropriate provision to address this problem, establish an immediate, simple, flat-rate copyright fee for this use of 5 to 7% of global turnover in order to compensate for the added value that these businesses generate using the data of European creatives and to ensure it remains in Europe.

Of course, this also calls for a reassessment of the territoriality principle, as already envisaged in the AI Act. We cannot allow AI models to be trained just anywhere in the world using European copyright-protected data only for them to be then made available in Europe.

In the future, there may also be a need for a democratic legislator having to either review or standardise the quality of the basic data used by generative ‘Large Language Models’.  In the future, it may also be necessary for the legislator to require such AI developers to include copyright-protected works in order to maintain the quality of those models.

On the other hand, we should also use AI to enhance the independence and diversity of high-quality information.

AI also needs access to copyright-protected works in order to develop further in terms of quality. In recent years, therefore, a huge amount of content has been used by AI developers mainly, but not solely, for training purposes. Such training constitutes a completely novel use of content, to which the existing copyright rules are applicable only to a limited extent.

Currently, the lack of compensation results in enormous legal uncertainty. A legally clear solution to this source of conflict is required with the utmost urgency. As long as there is no clear legal framework regulating conflicting interests, European content will be used with the added value being generated elsewhere. The Commission must therefore take immediate action[14] without waiting for possible reviews of, for instance, the Copyright Directive or the AI Act.

A solution must arise from the interplay between licensing possibilities and transparency requirements on the basis of international law and the resulting right of disposal of the content creator.

Thus, a reference to Article 4 of the DSM Directive is still not sufficient and probably not in line with international copyright principles. The European legislator incorporated Article 4 in the AI Act without, however, having clearly established the consequences. The current exemption in Article 4 allowing text and data mining under the conditions specified was not drafted with the intention of enabling the use en masse of copyright-protected material by all through generative AI. And certainly not where it also leads to the creation of a competitive product accessible to the public.

Nevertheless, even if in the opinion of the rapporteur Article 4 is not applicable, we need a similar possibility allowing developers of AI to obtain licences for copyright-protected works in as straightforward and technically easy to implement manner as possible. This is best done digitally. Moreover, the rationale of Article 17 of the DSM Directive should also be taken into account.

At the same time, it is important to ensure that rights holders are still able to decide whether – or not – and how (licencing) their content can be utilised for this new type of use. Right-holders must be given the right to an opt-out.

However, for this to be recognised easily and unhindered by AI developers, it must be machine-readable and standardised[15]. It must also be the responsibility of the rights holder to make use of this opt-out in a legally and practically certain manner.

In order to make implementation as simple as possible for AI developers, it seems necessary to record the opt-out in a European register. It would therefore seem appropriate for such a register to be maintained by EUIPO. The AI developer would thus have the possibility either to respect the standardised, machine-readable opt-outs or to identify through the register which works may not be used without permission.

On the other hand, only content protected with an opt-out or registered can still be protected from this type of use. It would even be possible to link the licensing process to this register, thereby simplifying matters and creating a kind of ‘one-stop-shop’ for AI developers.

As rights holders are not and cannot be aware whether their content is being used in this novel way, a transparency requirement is essential. This transparency requirement would oblige AI developers to provide a comprehensive and detailed list of the protected content they have drawn on for this novel use. The ‘sufficiently detailed summary’ provided for by the AI Act has so far been completely inadequate since it cannot provide clarity regarding the use of content precisely because it is a summary.  An interpretation which can also be used in the context of copyright law is therefore necessary here.

If, for example, reasons such as trade secrets preclude access to this data base in the form of transparency that is relevant to the content creator, the obligation must be fulfilled through a trust as an intermediary. Here too, EUIPO could act as the intermediary. It could then inform the rights holders of the use made of their work.

The transparency obligation can also be fulfilled by requiring labelling of the copyrighted work, e.g. watermarks[16] or the like, and allowing rights holders to cross-check this either through access to the basic AI model or via the register. In a digital world, a digital fingerprint on the protected works seems essential anyway.

The legislator will probably also have to resolve the issue that not every private website containing a copyright-protected image is automatically excluded from the training data.

Abuse, manipulation of information, legal assumptions, reversal of the burden of proof or even the very strong legal remedy of liability must be considered or weighed very carefully at all times and at every step of the way.

In addition to considering how to solve this problem, copyright law needs generally to be adapted to technological developments. This will require further European harmonisation of Member States’ national copyright laws.

G a.     whereas it is necessary to revise the AI Act’s implementation package, like the GPAI Code of Practice, the GPAI Guidelines, and the Template for sharing detailed summaries of training data, and to make sure that Article 53 of the AI Act is enforced effectively; whereas the sufficient detailed summary must necessarily render possible the enforcement of the copyright and whereas for this enforcement the disclosure of detailed information about the content used are absolutely necessary, whereas such detailed information must not necessarily be visible, but retrievable.

I e.       whereas case-law on the topic of the infringing use of copyrighted content for the training of AI models is still scarce, as a few court decisions should be expected in a near future, after judicial actions have been introduced by various rights holders in the EU and in the world against some AI providers;

Amendment

J.         whereas Article 4 of Directive (EU) 2019/790 on copyright and related rights in the Digital Single Market (CDSM Directive) introduced an exception for the reproduction and the extraction of works and other subject matter for the purpose of text and data mining (TDM), which, under Article 2 of that Directive, is defined as ‘any automated analytical technique aimed at analysing text and data in digital form in order to generate information [...]’; whereas Article 4 was neither drafted nor intended to regulate the specific practices involved in AI training;

J.         whereas Articles 3 and 4 of Directive (EU) 2019/790 on copyright and related rights in the Digital Single Market (CDSM Directive) introduced an exception for the reproduction and the extraction of works and other subject matter for the purpose of text and data mining (TDM), which, under Article 2 of that Directive, is defined as ‘any automated analytical technique aimed at analysing text and data in digital form in order to generate information [...]’; whereas Articles 3 and 4 were intended inter alia to regulate the specific practices involved in AI training, which has been confirmed by guidance from the European Commission, the AI Act and jurisprudence; the existing TDM exception under Article 4 CDSM provides a relevant legal framework for the use of protected works for AI training purposes; whereas the European Parliament's press release that was issued when the Directive was enacted states that Article 4 will "contribute to the development of data analytics and artificial intelligence";

N.        whereas, in addition to a standardised machine-readable opt-out, rights holders should also have the possibility to register such opt-out in a centralised registry, using a single technological standard and in machine-readable format, potentially managed by the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), thereby enabling the effective exclusion of registered works from automated data crawling;

N.        whereas GenAI is an extremely fast-developing technology and rights holders must take this into account to ensure that their right of refusal is effective; whereas the EUIPO should therefore consider continuously monitoring and listing existing data crawling technologies, for the benefit of rights holders, in order to ensure the effectiveness and technological longevity of the refusals expressed; whereas any proposal for a new mechanism for expressing the right of refusal risks adding a new layer of complexity to the already complex architecture;

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

 

Q a.     Believes that collective management organisations (CMOs), thanks to their experience in representing a wide range of rights-holders for large-scale licensing, notably at international level, could play a central role in licensing the mass-scale uses of copyright-protected works for training GenAI to facilitate the legal exploitation of works and deliver remuneration to the authors and other rightholders, while offering a central contact point for AI providers for licensing; in particular, calls CMOs to engage further into efficient technical solutions for the exchange of information between them internationally and cross-creative sectors, notably within the framework of their reciprocal agreements;

R.        whereas, in addition to the obligation of transparency, concerning copyright-protected works and other protected subject matter, there's a growing demand for market-based solution regarding licensing and remuneration systems; whereas the AI Act contains requirements to help rightholder to exercie their rights.

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

 

8 a.      Calls on the Commission to facilitate the establishment of voluntary collective licensing agreements per sector, including but not limited to news media, music, book publishing, academic and research publishing and the audiovisual sector, to enable the lawful use of copyright-protected content for AI training; believes that such agreements, which might be linked either to input or output of content, could provide a balanced and efficient framework for ensuring the fair remuneration of rights holders while enabling access to high-quality training data for AI providers;

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

 

13 e.    Deeply regrets the Commission’s withdrawal of the AI Liability Directive, which would have provided harmonised procedural rules and avoided fragmentation across 27 regimes; notes that significant gaps persist, as the PLD excludes pure economic loss and the AI Act creates no civil remedies, leaving rightholders exposed when copyrighted works are used without authorisation in training or when AI outputs substitute originals; calls on the Commission to table a revised AILD so Parliament’s debates can resume, incorporating targeted evidence-disclosure duties, rebuttable presumptions, calibrated burden-of-proof and value-chain responsibilities, with confidentiality safeguards to secure redress while preserving innovation and competitiveness;

Motion for a resolution

Amendment

 

13 f.     Notes with concern that rightsholders face technical and practical barriers to effective TDM opt-outs for AI training; observes that current machine-readable controls lack interoperability, depend on unreliable crawler self-identification, are inconsistently enforced, and offer insufficient granularity to refuse AI training while permitting search indexing; stresses that these deficits, alongside poor integration with web infrastructure, undermine control and discoverability; supports Commission engagement with IETF AI Preferences work and urges robust, interoperable, purpose-specific signals with verifiable enforcement across the ecosystem;
