Who owns AI-generated content? Is it ok to train generative AI on other creators' content? Is there a role for competition law? Are prompts personal data? And when is generative AI high risk? Join us for a discussion in this first of a series of 3 discussions - with real people, for real people. @aim4dem https://lnkd.in/emnubw-B

If a film like M3GAN says anything about broader public perceptions of AI we still have a major job ahead in debunking & much needed digital common sense. And we should start with Hollywood! Seriously?! Movie industry, you can do better! (Interestingly, this was one of the rare cases where the audience was more sane than the critics 94 vs 78% on Rotten Tomatoes)
