EU Creators Coalition Warns: GPAI Code of Practice Draft Falls Short

A coalition of EU creators and rightsholders has raised serious concerns about the third draft of the General-Purpose AI (GPAI) Code of Practice. They warn that without significant improvements, the draft may not meet the adequacy requirement set by the AI Act and could face rejection.

The Open Rights Group (ORG) is among those calling for substantial revisions. They argue that the current draft fails to align with the objectives of the AI Act and misinterprets EU copyright law. The coalition's joint statement highlights key concerns that were overlooked despite their active participation in the drafting process.

The coalition demands improvements to ensure the Code upholds EU law and provides meaningful protections for authors, performers, and other rightsholders. They stress that the current draft falls short in addressing these critical issues.

The coalition's intervention underscores the need for substantial improvements in the third draft of the GPAI Code of Practice. Without these changes, the draft may not meet the AI Act's adequacy requirement, potentially leading to its rejection. The coalition remains committed to working towards a Code that effectively protects the rights of creators and rightsholders in the EU's cultural and creative sectors.
