       We are opening a consultation on the inclusion of ACM publications within AI licensing agreements for access and training purposes. To set out our thinking behind this consultation, we have published this piece by Scott Delman as to why we believe it is now the right time for us to enter into these discussions. 🔗 : https://cacm.acm.org/opinion/now-is-the-time-to-give-llms-access-to-the-acm-digital-library/

       In short,- We feel that responsible inclusion of ACM Publications into AI systems will positively impact global access to scientific research and better influence future work. The balance of protecting the integrity of the Digital Library vs the risk of continuing to be excluded from new ways that researchers discover information is a delicate one which requires careful consideration.🌍️

       - We are aware of concerns around key issues such as attribution, hallucinations, and the uneven economic landscape among commercial AI providers. Therefore, we will evaluate both opportunities and risks very carefully before coming to a decision. ✒️ - Revenue is not, nor should it ever be, a primary driver for ACM reaching licensing agreements with AI providers. However, if additional revenue is generated it will be used as additional support for all the meaningful work that ACM does. 🔬
