New Bill Seeks AI Transparency in Copyright and Training Practices

Senator Peter Welch introduced the TRAIN Act to address the 'black box' problem in AI, aiming to provide transparency in the use of copyrighted works for training AI models. The bill would allow copyright holders to access AI training records to verify if their works were used without permission, similar to anti-piracy measures. The legislation has garnered support from music industry leaders and organizations, who emphasize its importance in protecting creators' rights and ensuring fair compensation.
