Any material that is copyrighted needs to be legally acquired first, so you have to pay the appropriate fees, royalties or what have you. Once it moves beyond that, and there is a requirement to have copies for verification and machine learning, there would be an exception within the Copyright Act.</p>",

Ensuite, s'il faut faire des copies aux fins de v\u00e9rification et d'apprentissage machine, il y aurait une exception pr\u00e9vue dans la Loi sur le droit d'auteur. </p>"
