英国政府已放弃允许人工智能公司在未获许可情况下使用受版权保护作品进行训练的计划1。这一政策转变源于以埃尔顿·约翰、保罗·麦卡特尼等知名艺人和导演比班·基德龙为首的创意产业人士发起的强有力政治运动1。
这场反对浪潮获得了英国民众的广泛支持1。民调数据显示,70%的英国成年人支持向版权持有人支付使用其作品训练AI模型的特许费1。在行业组织动员方面,埃德·牛顿-雷克斯策划了名为《这是我们想要的吗?》的沉默专辑,获得包括达蒙·阿尔巴恩、凯特·布什和安妮·伦诺克斯在内的超过1000名音乐家支持1。文学界也加入了这场运动,《别偷这本书》创意活动汇集了包括石黑一雄、菲莉帕·格雷戈里和理查德·奥斯曼在内的超过10000名作家的名字1。
埃尔顿·约翰在声明中抨击政府为"彻底的失败者",指责其计划"剥夺年轻人的遗产和收入"1。2024年3月,英国技术大臣利兹·肯德尔宣布放弃原计划中的"可选退出"政策1。
The UK government has abandoned plans to allow artificial intelligence companies to train their systems on copyrighted creative works without permission, following an intensive campaign by prominent figures in the entertainment and literary industries.1 Musician Elton John, along with fellow artists Paul McCartney and filmmaker Beeban Kidron, spearheaded a political movement that secured broad public backing and ultimately forced the government to reverse course.1 In March 2024, UK Technology Secretary Liz Kendall announced the decision to scrap the proposed "opt-out" policy framework.1
The creative community's opposition proved decisive in swaying both public opinion and government policy.1 Seven in ten British adults support requiring AI developers to pay licensing fees to copyright holders for using their work in model training, according to polling data.1 Elton John characterized the government's original proposal as allowing officials to "rob young people of their legacy and their income," calling decision-makers "absolute losers."1 Musician Ed Newton-Rex organized a silent album titled "Is This What We Want?" that garnered support from over 1,000 musicians including Damon Albarn, Kate Bush, and Annie Lennox.1 Writers mounted a parallel effort with the "Don't Steal This Book" campaign, which featured the names of 10,000 authors and included participants such as Booker Prize winner Kazuo Ishiguro, novelist Philippa Gregory, and author Richard Osman.1
