Law No. 230-VIII (), Art. 23(5) · Read the law's page
- Before using works, published news articles included, to train an AI model, check whether the author or rightsholder has expressed a prohibition in machine-readable form, and do not train on the work if they have (Article 23(5)).
- Do not rely on copyright's free-use exceptions for educational or scientific purposes to justify training: training does not fall within them (Article 23(3)).
- Training a model does not itself amount to exercising the author's reproduction, distribution, adaptation, public display, performance or broadcast rights (Article 23(4)), but keep a separate licence or basis for your underlying reproduction of the articles themselves; the machine-readable check does not replace it.
