We stand with over 10k authors and publishing professionals in supporting a clear principle: the use of copyrighted content to train AI models should be transparent, properly licensed and fairly compensated. Innovation is important, but it shouldn't come at the expense of the authors, illustrators and creators whose work sustains the publishing ecosystem. As the UK Government considers the future of AI and copyright, it's essential that creators' rights continue to be respected and protected. www.dontstealthisbook.com #DontStealThisBook #publishing The Publishers Association The Society of Authors Ed Newton-Rex
