Inteligencia Artificial Generativa y derechos de autor | La visión de ADEPA

Martín Etchevers, president of the Argentine Association of Journalistic Entities, participated in an international panel in Geneva, where he warned about the risks that generative artificial intelligence poses to the sustainability and credibility of journalism. His intervention highlighted that, while the technology has its uses, irresponsible application can lead to disinformation, manipulation, and erosion of public trust, directly threatening democratic debate. Etchevers proposed that the development of these tools must be governed by strict principles that protect intellectual property and publishers’ investments. Central to his argument was the need to implement the “three Cs”: explicit consent, credit to authors, and economic compensation for the use of content. He emphasized that authorization should not be assumed by default but must be obtained specifically, and that AI engines must recognize publishers as essential parties in their value chain. This speech is relevant to the open data movement because it establishes a crucial precedent regarding the ethics of using public and journalistic information. By demanding transparency in sources, mandatory citation, and compensation rights, it reinforces the idea that access to information should not be indiscriminate or ethically free. This aligns data management with principles of authorship and accountability, which are fundamental to ensuring that the openness of information does not compromise the quality and integrity of journalism.
