Description

Generative AI and Creative Industries: Ethical, Legal and Work Implications. Generative AI is creating significant new challenges in the creative industries as it consumes the copyrighted outputs of creative workers to generate content that can compete with the outputs of those same workers. Using an innovative interdisciplinary approach and industry collaborations, this project will generate solutions to the ethical, philosophical, legal, and workplace problems created by Generative AI in the creative industries, a sector contributing $90 billion and over 700,000 jobs to the economy. The national benefit of this project will be the design of an innovative framework for responding to this economy-altering technology in a fair and ethical manner, while drawing on the perspectives of impacted creative workers.. Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 5001 - Applied Ethics. Lead: Prof Paul Formosa
