AB 412

As amended on 5/7/2025: - Requires a developer of generative artificial intelligence to document any covered materials that the developer knows were used to train the system. - Requires the developer to make available a mechanism on the developer’s internet website allowing a rights owner to submit a request for information about the developer’s use of covered materials. - Requires a developer assess whether the covered material represented by a fingerprint provided by the rights owner is likely to be present in the developer’s dataset and provide the rights owner with a list of their covered materials that were used to train the model and are likely to be present in the developer’s dataset within 30 days. - Authorizes a civil action for a rights owner that is not provided with a list of materials or notified by a developer. - Provides that requirements do not apply to a model that meets certain criteria, including, among other things, being trained exclusively using data the developer makes publicly available at no cost.
