Creative Commons debuts CC signals, a framework for an open AI ecosystem


The idea is meant to create a balance between the open nature of the internet and the demand for ever more data to fuel AI.

Nonprofit Creative Commons, which spearheaded the licensing movement that allows creators to share their works while retaining copyright, is now preparing for the AI era. On Wednesday, the organization announced the launch of a new project, CC signals, which will allow dataset holders to detail how their content can or cannot be reused by machines, as in the case of training AI models. The organization is actively seeking public feedback ahead of its plans for an alpha launch (early test) in November 2025.
