Copyright-AI licensing, remuneration, deepfakes, online piracy open for input in EU
( May 13, 2026, 14:09 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: The European Commission is seeking input on whether EU copyright and AI rules are sufficient to support licensing and enforcement in the generative AI market, ahead of a possible targeted legislative proposal in early 2027. The review will examine whether right holders have adequate access to information about AI training data, whether additional measures are needed to facilitate AI licensing, and whether stronger protections are needed against deepfakes, live-stream piracy and unauthorized AI uses. This comes in parallel of a separate review of existing copyright rules.See call for evidence attached....
