- The new “Make It Fair” campaign wants to tackle “content flight”
- British creatives come together to urge a stronger law on copyright
- AI used content without authorization or compensation
Artificial intelligence and models of large languages are trained on online information hordes, including songs, articles, comments, books, drawings, photos, and more – if you have already commented An Instagram post, published a photo on Twitter or downloaded a video on YouTube – The probability is that your work was used to form a model at one time or another.
These models also do not require authorization, nor do not refer to the creator – and these models make millions from the content. Openai would have used more than a million hours of YouTube video data to form the GPT -4, and Meta uses publications of Instagram and Facebook to form its IA model – but the British creatives meet to ride .
The artists, singers, authors, journalists and writers (and even more) – who collectively generate more than 120 billion pounds sterling per year for the national economy, gathered to urge the British government to apply the law British on copyright to AI companies and to ensure “theft of content ‘is not legitimized by leaving this problem without control.

The campaign “ Make It Fair ” arrives at the end of the period of consultation of the AI and the copyright of the British government, in which it examines the means of stimulating confidence and transparency between the sectors, and “Ensure that AI developers have access to high quality materials to train managers AI models in the United Kingdom and support innovation in the British AI sector.”
Owen Meredith, CEO of News Media Association, which launched the campaign, added that the copyright laws of the United Kingdom have supported growth and job creation in the British economy, and without content Let them produce, AI innovation would not exist.
“And for a healthy democratic society, copyright is fundamental for the ability of publishers to invest in quality of confidence journalism,” said Meredith.
“The only thing that must be affirmed is that these laws also apply to AI, and transparency requirements must be introduced to allow creators to understand when their content is used. Instead, the government proposes to weaken the law and make essentially legal to steal content.
The AI is at the forefront of productivity discussions in the United Kingdom at the moment, while the PM has published plans for “ turbo-drilling AI models.
