Abstract:
In this talk, we will address the most relevant aspects of the LLM lifecycle from the perspective of intellectual property rights (copyright and related rights), primarily within the regulatory context of the European Union and Spain.
Using examples and case studies, we will discuss the necessary conditions for the application of the text and data mining exception provided for in the Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market and the possible consequences of non-compliance; among others, legitimate access for data extraction, the ways in which rights holders can exclude or reserve their content from extraction (opt-out), and the obligations for opt-out detection and transparency imposed by the Artificial Intelligence Act on providers of training datasets, model providers, and artificial intelligence system providers.
We will also cover the access and reuse of publicly owned content, as regulated in the Open Data Directive and the reuse of public sector information.
