Watch: AI & Creativity: Protecting Creators in the Age of AI
- 3 November 2023, 2-3:30pm
- British Library, Elliot Room of the Knowledge Centre, 96 Euston Road, London, NW1 2DB
At the recent AI Fringe, part of the UK’s AI summit, DACS convened a panel exploring the potential impacts of AI models on creators and their IP rights.
From artists to writers, AI is impacting many creators whose copyright-protected works have been used to train AI models, often without their permission or fair pay. As the UK Government looks to navigate its regulatory response to AI, it's essential that creators and copyright owners have a significant voice.
As part of the AI Fringe programme (30th October – 3rd November), 'AI & Creativity: Protecting Creators in the Age of AI' brought together artists, writers, and leaders working across the Creative Industries to discuss and highlight creators' unique insights and experiences, which are pivotal to ensuring AI develops to be fair and equitable for all.
