"Proposed US Bill Requires Transparency on AI Training with Copyrighted Content"

Hollywood guilds including SAG-AFTRA, IATSE, WGA, and DGA are backing a new bill proposed by Rep. Adam Schiff to regulate the use of copyrighted material in training generative AI systems. The bill, if passed, would require companies to disclose the origin of datasets used in AI training and impose a $5,000 civil penalty for violations. This move comes in response to concerns about the impact of AI on workers and creators, and follows previous negotiations between guilds and studios on AI protections. The bill has garnered bipartisan support and aligns with broader efforts to address AI's influence in the entertainment industry.
