Prime Minister defends journalism amid AI developers copyright infringement

In the wake of large tech companies pushing for free reign in scraping copyrighted data, Keir Starmer stated that media organisations should have control over their content and receive fair compensation.

He emphasised the government’s commitment to protecting the media’s role in upholding democratic values, even as digital technology rapidly evolves.

The PPA along with a coalition of businesses and associations (who represent rightsholders and creatives) is working closely to develop a coordinated approach to tackle copyright infringement carried out by AI developers.

The Government is expected to consult on the matter in due course, and the PPA will be responding to the inquiry in consultation with members.
