AI Summary
This bill would create a way for copyright owners to find out if their work was used to train an artificial intelligence (AI) model. It sets up an administrative subpoena process so creators can request records or copies that show whether their content was included in AI training. The goal is to add transparency between AI companies and the people whose work may be in their datasets .
In practice, this means AI developers could be required to share certain records about their training data when they receive a valid subpoena. This helps artists, writers, and other creators check if their work was used and consider next steps. The text available focuses on creating the subpoena process, not on penalties or timelines .
- Who is affected: Copyright owners and AI model developers
- What changes: A new administrative subpoena process to get records or copies related to AI training data
- When: The provided text does not specify timing details
