UK’s House of Lords votes to strengthen copyright protections in AI, dealing blow to government’s plans

The House of Lords voted 145 to 126 in favor of amendments to a bill in a bid to strengthen copyright protections in AI development. The development came just weeks after Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s government received a report proposing a sweeping national AI strategy. The reforms were championed by digital rights campaigner and crossbench (independent) peer Baroness Kidron, and backed by the Creative Rights In AI Coalition.
