Guidance on CC Licensing in the Age of AI

This guidance addresses how the current suite of CC legal tools apply—or not—in a world where AI systems both rely on and produce knowledge while increasingly acting as an intermediary to original sources. We start with an executive summary of our general guidance and include a note on terminology before examining the broader content and underlying assumptions of this work. We then provide additional context for and links to our existing licensing guidance across three sectors that are among the heaviest users of CC legal tools: open culture, open education, and open science.
