Link: HarperCollins is asking authors to license their books for AI training

HarperCollins has entered into an agreement with an AI technology firm to use select nonfiction titles for AI training, aimed at enhancing model accuracy and function.

This collaboration offers a limited and controlled utilization, ensuring protection of authors' rights and content.

HarperCollins has always embraced innovation and the exploration of new business avenues.

This agreement provides an opportunity for authors to opt into the project, maintaining a say in the use of their works.

The deal is designed to safeguard both the intellectual property rights of the authors and the financial interests shared with HarperCollins.

While HarperCollins sees this partnership as beneficial, they recognize and respect the diverse perspectives of their authors regarding participation. #
