Representing Data Use Restrictions in Descriptive Metadata

Abstract

With the increasing prevalence of open LLMs and chatbots like ChatGPT, more data vendors are adding explicit restrictions in their license agreements on the use of their data in relation to AI. This presentation provides an overview of my team's efforts to improve the description of these AI-related limitations and permitted uses in our organization's data catalogue records, with the goal of supporting license compliance. The project involves developing a new property within the Rights wrapper of our internal metadata schema, based largely on the DataCite Metadata Schema, as well as an accompanying controlled vocabulary.
