Penguin Random House Takes a Stand Against AI Training with New Copyright Policy
Penguin Random House, the largest trade publisher globally, will now include a statement on copyright pages of its books prohibiting their use for training AI systems. This marks a significant move as the publisher becomes the first major entity to respond to ongoing legal battles regarding copyrighted materials and AI. The new language will appear in both new releases and reprints, emphasizing the protection of authors’ intellectual property. Despite this, the publisher maintains a balanced stance, indicating it may still use generative AI responsibly in publishing processes.
