The Paris AI Summit intends to promote reliable, sustainable and responsible AI. For the first time at this level, intellectual property is being discussed.
This is an essential global issue that cannot be ignored. That is why 38 international organisations representing all the creative and cultural sectors are today issuing a call to build a future that reconciles the development of AI with respect for copyright and related rights.
This is an issue that transcends borders, as demonstrated in particular by the “Hiroshima” AI process under the auspices of the G7, by the G20 conclusions and by international treaties.
The summit therefore has a special responsibility as there will be no trusted AI without respect for intellectual property rights. There will be no ethical AI without the authorisation of rightsholders. There will be no sovereign AI without a fair business model. The States who are party to the Summit must seize this opportunity to join us in ensuring that fundamental rights are respected.
