MWITA-CD-2026-068 · Evidence A · P0
The UK government's March 2026 copyright-and-AI report found insufficient evidence of positive economic effect from the existing computer-generated-works protection and proposed its removal, while separately identifying gaps around unauthorized digital replicas and proposing further exploration rather than an enacted new personality right.
What this does not establish
The report is not enacted legislation and its consultation responses are not a representative population survey.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Most responses reflected right-holder and creative-industry views, many used templates, and no consensus emerged on the form of digital-replica protection.
What would change the reading
Update on legislation, consultations, court decisions, economic evidence and implementation guidance.
