What changed
Publisher and translator organisations publish an AI addendum explicitly applicable from 5 September 2024. Training on translations requires special permission from the other contracting party; AI translation or processing requires agreement between the parties, except for ordinary word processing and proofreading.
Read the publisher’s webpage, lines 115–145, and the single-page addendum PDF text, lines 0–15. The webpage explicitly gives 5 September 2024 as the effective date; the PDF also supplies the applicability date and an Oslo dateline. These do not prove individual signatures or automatic changes to all previous contracts. The PDF screenshot tool returned no viewable image and the local download returned 403; images and handwritten signatures were not checked. No archival copy was retained.
Editorial research question
Editorial interpretation: bilateral contracts distinguish training permission, translators’ assisted translation and publishers’ subsequent processing. This is conditional negotiation, not a blanket rejection of AI.
This is an editorial interpretation or question, separate from factual statements.
