- Keep a reproduction made under the general text-and-data-mining exception only for as long as the mining requires.no control in the NIST AI RMF
These lines are LexLint's reading of the law's text.
In the frameworks
- NIST AI RMF
- MAP 4.1Approaches for mapping AI technology and legal risks of its components – including the use of third-party data or software – are in place, followed, and documented, as are risks of infringement of a third party’s intellectual property or other rights.
Our reading of where this law's duties sit in each framework, and in the NIST AI RMF, line by line beside each duty above. It never says that running a control meets the law. How we read a framework against the law

- Open questions
- What counts as a use that is 'výslovne vyhradené' under § 51c(1), given that the provision names no form for the reservation, and does a robots.txt directive or a term in a website's conditions meet it?
- Does the copying of works to train a generative model amount to 'čerpanie údajov' under § 51c(1)?

What this law does
Section 51b, inserted by Act 71/2022 Coll., lets a library, archive, museum, school, or statutory depositary reproduce a work for text-and-data-mining for research purposes without the author's consent, with no rightsholder opt-out. It lets the reproduction be retained for research purposes, including verifying the research results. Section 51c gives any person a general text-and-data-mining exception, defeated where the rightsholder has expressly reserved that use.
A reproduction made under section 51c may be kept only as long as needed for the mining. Section 51b(2) defines data mining, for the purposes of the Act, as any automated analytical technique aimed at analysing data in digital form to obtain patterns, trends, correlations, or similar results.
