Safeguarding culture in the age of AI

Priorities:

• Transparency on training data
• Legal certainty (DSM opt-outs)
• Alignment with EU values
The AI Act & upcoming Code of Practice must not leave creators behind.

EU prepares to give new rights to live #streaming sites, to the detriment of the Internet and its users - https://walledculture.org/eu-prepares-to-give-new-rights-to-live-streaming-sites-to-the-detriment-of-the-internet-and-its-users/ efforts to turn the #copyright ratchet once more have begun
Good Copy Bad Copy is a documentary about copyright and culture in the context of Internet, peer-to-peer file sharing and other technological advances, directed by Andreas Johnsen, Ralf Christensen, and Henrik Moltke.
It features interviews with many people with various perspectives on copyright, including copyright lawyers, producers, artists and filesharing service providers.
A central point of the documentary is the thesis that "creativity itself is on the line" and that a balance needs to be struck, or that there is a conflict, between protecting the right of those who own intellectual property and the rights of future generations to create.
