Google has promised to take on the legal defense of those who use the company’s generative AI products in the event of copyright infringement litigation, The Verge writes.
The company has identified seven products that are covered: Duet AI on Google Cloud, Duet AI on Workspace, Vertex AI Conversation, Codey API, Vertex AI Search, Vertex AI Text Embedding API, and Visual Captioning on Vertex AI.
Google made the decision to provide legal protection to reduce user concerns. The company indicated that these types of measures are not something new.
The decision concerns, in particular, those claims where, when using the company’s products, the results violate another person’s copyright. For example, when the generated image is similar to one previously published.
However, Google emphasizes that protection will only be relevant in cases where it is obvious that the user did not intentionally try to use the received content to violate the rights of others.
Following the phenomenal success of ChatGPT from developer OpenAI, the industry is considering labeling content created by artificial intelligence. The labeling proposal came from the University of California.
In Russia, where several companies are actively developing AI-based services, it was also recommended to introduce mandatory labeling. The Ministry of Digital Development considers that a special graphic poster should be developed for this purpose.
