Dominican Republic brings together 17 countries to discuss artificial intelligence and copyright

A group of experts and representatives from Latin American and Caribbean countries is meeting in Santo Domingo under the auspices of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) to analyze the impact of artificial intelligence on copyright. The main objective is to address the challenges that new technologies pose to creative industries, author remuneration, and the collective management of works, with the aim of adapting existing regulations to the digital age. Intense discussions are taking place on the relationship between AI model training and intellectual property, as well as on the development of sustainable digital business models. The sessions explore how to manage authorship in synthetic works and assess compensation mechanisms for creators on streaming platforms, emphasizing the need to balance technological innovation with the protection of moral and economic rights. This meeting is relevant to open data because transparency in collective management, regulation of training data, and clarity regarding AI-generated works are essential for creating accessible and ethical information ecosystems. By establishing clear criteria on data ownership and creations derived from algorithms, a foundation is laid for global interoperability that respects creators’ rights, facilitating a fairer and more regulated flow of information.
