Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of bringing forward legislative proposals to prevent the unauthorised use of creative content by AI.

The UK has world-leading protections for copyright and intellectual property, and we are committed to maintaining them. We want rights holders to be assured that AI firms will use their content appropriately and lawfully. The Intellectual Property Office has been working with rights holders and AI firms to clarify the relationship between AI and copyrighted works. An update on this work will be published in due course.
