FIAT/IFTA World Conference 2024

On behalf of the VUC, we would like to give a short presentation on AI, copyright and other legal/policy aspects (by Maartje Hülsenbeck) followed by a workshop with all interested members of FIAT/IFTA in this topic. We will pose questions on different AI and copyright related topics (see below) and present statements to the group to discuss.

The goal of this session is to provide information on AI and copyright and other legal aspects, as well as to gather insights by hearing from each organisation in which way they use AI and explore how this could be related to copyright and use, as well as exchange ideas on AI policies that organisations might already have or are considering to make. We will also be conducting a survey prior to the conference to e.g. get an impression of the fact if organisations already have policies on AI.

The VUC will convert the outcomes of the survey and the workshop in a report, as well as examples of AI policies some organisations might already have and are willing to share, and ultimately we will publish this on the FIAT/IFTA website.

We aim to provide a set of guiding principles for organisations to consider when implementing their own AI strategies when creating, archiving and re-using their content.

We would like to invite some people of the organisations we already know of that are more advanced in the use of AI to the Workshop, who would definitely join the session and bring their real experiences to the discussion.
