Responsible AI Starts with Licensing

Based on market feedback and following the successful launch of AI re-use rights within the Annual Copyright License (ACL), we will be launching a new voluntary collective license.

The new AI Systems Training License is for organizations training AI models for uses external to their organization. ​

Adopting the AI Systems Training License helps Licensees and organizations developing AI-powered applications: 

  • Use lawfully acquired works as inputs for training AI models for uses external to their organization. 
  • Support compliance strategy by utilizing a cost-efficient license that includes rights to use content from a variety of sources. 
  • Align with market demand for licenses that permit the training of ethical, high-performing models with content from a wide range of providers, enabling responsible AI.
  • Leverage rights to high-quality content from trusted sources to strengthen the integrity of inferences.

We are looking to work with organizations that are interested in being an early adopter of this license and who can provide feedback as we prepare it for broader availability.
