AI Innovations Aim to Preserve Artistic Integrity and Avoid Copyright Issues
Artist and activist Karla Ortiz is leading efforts to protect human artists from the encroachment of generative AI, which she argues is unethical and threatens jobs by using copyrighted material without consent. Ortiz has organized town hall meetings, testified before the US Senate, and is a plaintiff in class action lawsuits against companies like Midjourney and Stability AI. She advocates for stricter regulations and technological countermeasures to safeguard artists' rights and livelihoods.
