Microsoft to represent clients in disputes over AI copyright
If Microsoft is sued for copyright infringement for the output produced by such systems, the business would pay legal damages on behalf of users of its artificial intelligence (AI) products, the company has announced.
Microsoft warned that as long as its customers make use of "the guardrails and content filters" integrated into its products, it will be held liable for any potential legal risks resulting from any claims made by third parties. It provides features designed to lessen the possibility that the AI may return infringing content.
Users are worried that generative AI, which refers to computer programmes that can generate text, images, sounds, and other types of data, would produce material without crediting the original creators.
Microsoft is stacking its growth on GenAI, building on its investment in ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, and has incorporated the technology in a wide array of its products, including cloud services, Search and enterprise productivity software.
The company's Copilot Copyright Commitment extends Microsoft's existing intellectual property indemnification coverage to copyright claims relating to the use of its AI-powered assistants called Copilots and Bing Chat Enterprise.
