Article 23(5) of the Law on Artificial Intelligence permits using works, published news articles included, to train an AI model only where the author or rightsholder has not expressed a prohibition in machine-readable form.
The same Article separately states, at Article 23(3), that training does not fall within copyright law's free-use exceptions for educational or scientific purposes, and at Article 23(4) that training a model does not itself amount to exercising the author's reproduction, distribution, adaptation, public display, performance or broadcast rights.
Read together, an aggregator that trains a model on the news content it aggregates needs the absence of a machine-readable rightsholder objection under Article 23(5), separately from whatever licence its underlying reproduction of the articles themselves rests on.
