DR MICHAL MARKIEWICZ FOR THE RZECZPOSPOLITA – AI ACT: TRAINING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

In Rzeczpospolita, Dr. Michal Markiewicz writes about the extremely important change that the AI Act makes to the exception for, among other things, learning artificial intelligence algorithms. In a rather surprising way (only in the recitals), it is made clear that the regulations of the DSM Directive, including in particular the permitted use for data mining (TDM) and the requirements therein, must be observed by entrepreneurs offering ready-made artificial intelligence models on the EU market, regardless of in which part of the world such an algorithm was learned. Thus, this is a special kind of “extension” of the principle of territoriality of rights, made due to the place of offering a ready-made (no longer using TDM) artificial intelligence model. This change is extremely important for leveling the playing field in the AI market for entrepreneurs operating and developing artificial intelligence models in the EU territory. This is because until now they have been at a disadvantage compared to their non-EU competitors. After the changes, all those offering a finished product on the European market will be obliged to create it based on the same rules regarding respect for copyright.
