AI and the Law: How New Developments Protect Creators

Rapidly advancing generative artificial intelligence technologies promise to transform every industry.

The content-production industries, from advertising and motion pictures to literature and fine art, to music and even news media, are perhaps one of the most significantly impacted.

Generative AI technologies have made it possible to create high-quality content across various media in a matter of minutes, using a fraction of the human labor that such production has traditionally required.

Understandably, artists and creators in all disciplines are worried about whether they will be cut out from the future of their craft, as producers see the opportunity to save on production costs.

Fortunately, over the course of the last year, lawmakers, regulators, and labor unions around the world have begun to take meaningful steps to address these concerns.
