IMPF and IMPEL publish principles for fair generative-AI licensing

Joint Statement: IMPEL and IMPF on Fair Licensing for Generative AI

IMPF / IMPEL

Historical context & research account

On 30 September 2026, IMPF and IMPEL proposed principles for generative-AI music licensing. They distinguish payments for past uses, training, generated outputs and future exploitation, and call for rightsholder involvement in scope and valuation. This is an industry negotiating framework, not a concluded collective licence or a statutory tariff. Editorial interpretation: the statement translates objections to unlicensed training into questions of allocation among composition rights, recording rights and model commercialisation. It documents how refusal can enter licensing infrastructure, without establishing industry-wide consensus or realised income for artists.
