The Society of Authors is among the creative sector organisations that have launched a report showing the potentially devasting impact on the sector of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
AI has been heralded as the next industrial revolution, promising an age of innovation, limitless productivity and economic growth, but the reports says that such change comes at a cost of the industrial-scale theft of the UK’s cultural riches.
Entitled Brave New World?, the report calls for the Government to a new regulatory framework to protect the livelihoods of authors, illustrators, musicians, performers, and photographers, or risk the devastation of the UK’s £124.6 billion creative industries sector.
You can read the full report and find out why I agree that AI needs to be regulated on the A1 Friend or Foe? page of this website.
