Pwhy is AI shaking copyright?

Copyright was born from a technological change: printing. And all the revolutions of technology have shaken: the Internet, the mobile web, streaming… Today, it is the turn of AI to oppose it.

How can we reconcile the two conflicting principles of the AI ​​Law: the obligation for AI manufacturers to provide a detailed summary of training data and their right to invoke trade secrets to protect their knowledge?

The important thing is to get out of advertising and realize that there is a value chain. We pay for all the inputs: computers, talent, electricity, etc. The content used to train the AI ​​also has a price. The problem is that the AI ​​Act requires that this data collection be available to the public. It may be interesting to put it in the middle [par exemple, le Bureau européen de l’IA] to keep, if necessary, confidential.

That being said, we cannot invoke trade secrets to exempt ourselves from the application of the law. Also, this concept is mentioned in the explanatory notes [des annexes] of the text, but not in the provision itself, having legal force.
