The initiative aims to address concerns over data scraping and copyright infringement in the AI industry. Why is Fairly Trained important? Fairly Trained aims to distinguish between companies that train their AI on unfairly scraped data and those that adopt a more ethical approach by licensing. This is crucial for ensuring ethical and legal use of training data. Practical Solutions and Value The 'Fairly Trained' program introduces its first certification, the 'Licensed Model certification,' which highlights AI models that use training data ethically, ensuring no copyrighted work is used without a license. This is applicable to AI models in various fields like image and music generation. Companies seeking certification must thoroughly check the rights status of their training data and maintain detailed records of the data used. The application process involves a detailed written submission and a review process, concluding with certification and annual reevaluation. Testimonials Dr. Yair Adato of BRIA AI commends the initiative, stating, "We proudly support the Fairly Trained certification. This initiative counters the industry’s opacity in data procurement, ensuring companies meet rigorous ethical standards." Christopher Horton, SVP at Universal, said, "We welcome the launch of the Fairly Trained certification to help companies and creators identify responsible generative AI tools that were trained on lawfully and ethically obtained materials." Future Prospects Despite his resignation at Stability AI, Newton-Rex expressed optimism about the potential for a harmonious relationship between generative AI and the creative industries, which has now been underscored by Fairly Trained.
