Ed Husic tells Labor to get tougher on AI companies as letting them self-regulate ‘doomed to fail’

Labor MP Ed Husic argues that AI companies should not be allowed to regulate themselves and warns that weakening copyright laws (rules controlling who can use creative works) to help AI companies would contradict his party's values. The Media Entertainment & Arts Alliance, a union representing journalists and artists, is calling on the government to create stricter copyright rules to stop AI models from being trained on creative works without permission.
