Kazakhstan has officially approved its first Artificial Intelligence (AI) Law, making a significant move towards regulating AI technology in the region. This new legislation defines critical terms related to AI, including what constitutes AI-generated content and the responsibilities of developers and users. The law aims to provide clarity on liability and copyright issues that have previously been a gray area in AI innovation.
Key Provisions of Kazakhstan’s AI Law
Under the new law, the government has set clear guidelines for the use of copyrighted material in AI training data. AI developers must ensure they respect intellectual property rights when using third-party content for training purposes. The legislation also addresses liability in cases where AI-generated content infringes on copyright or causes harm. This means both developers and users can be held accountable depending on the situation.
Impact on AI Development
This regulatory step is expected to foster greater innovation while protecting rights holders. Businesses operating in Kazakhstan will need to review their AI projects to ensure compliance with the new rules. The law not only promotes responsible AI development but also paves the way for more transparent and ethical AI use across industries.
