CCC will introduce a new AI Systems Training License later this year, enabling AI system providers and organizations developing AI-powered applications to use lawfully acquired copyrighted works as inputs for training models and generating external-facing outputs.
Designed as a complement to direct licensing agreements or as a standalone solution, the license simplifies how organizations obtain consistent rights across a broad range of publishing sectors, including science, technology, medicine, business, news, and media.
CCC recently expanded its AI-related licensing offerings, adding AI rights for internal corporate use to its Annual Copyright License (ACL). This enterprise-wide solution provides businesses with a streamlined way to obtain permissions for using copyrighted materials in AI systems, ensuring harmonized internal-use rights from a wide array of rightsholders.
As part of its ongoing efforts to support responsible AI adoption, CCC is sponsoring “The Power of Licensing & Responsible AI – A Proactive Path for Publishers” at the 2025 London Book Fair on March 11. The session, moderated by CCC Managing Director Roy Kaufman and featuring Aaron Wood of the American Psychological Association, will explore how rightsholders can navigate AI’s evolving risks and opportunities while adapting to potential regulatory changes.
CCC continues to advance copyright advocacy through education, thought leadership, and licensing innovation. Since 1978, the organization has provided harmonized, voluntary licensing solutions that help businesses, educators, and researchers legally access and use copyrighted content.
