The lesson
As large language models increasingly rely on massive corpora of copyrighted works, copyright law is being tested not by AI outputs, but by AI inputs.
This class explores how copyright, text and data mining exceptions, and the EU AI Act interact in regulating AI training activities, focusing on lawful access, opt-outs, transparency obligations, and emerging case law.
The class offers a critical perspective on whether current legal tools are adequate to govern AI-driven uses of cultural and informational resources.
