Video: Authors urge AI companies to stop using work without permission
Thousands of American writers signed a joint letter on Monday urging artificial intelligence (AI) companies, including OpenAI and Google, to cease using their literary works without permission.
AI models have been scraping and learning literary content from the internet without authorization to generate new content. Generative AI further diminishes the space for writers to survive. A survey revealed that nearly 90 percent of writers believe AI companies should provide compensation for using their works.
The World Internet Conference (WIC) was established as an international organization on July 12, 2022, headquartered in Beijing, China. It was jointly initiated by Global System for Mobile Communication Association (GSMA), National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team/Coordination Center of China (CNCERT), China Internet Network Information Center (CNNIC), Alibaba Group, Tencent, and Zhijiang Lab.
