Liberal senator says art must not be sacrificed to corporate AI profit
The Guardian ·
At a glance
Liberal senator Andrew McLachlan has urged the Labor government to think about how AI affects artists and the environment. He said artists' works should not be sacrificed for big tech profits, and that artists' property rights must be protected.
Key points
- He said artists' works must not be sacrificed for global corporate profit.
- He said artists' property rights must be respected and protected.
- He said any compensation should be decided case by case for each artist, since a scheme for the whole industry would be hard to make fair.
- He said new datacentres must not harm biodiversity and that Australia should build AI capacity in a sustainable way.
Why it matters
AI is affecting artists' rights, datacentre growth and the environment, and Australia's AI policy is still being debated.
