The TUC has called for immediate action to protect creative workers such as artists, writers, and journalists from exploitation due to AI and technological changes. Unions emphasize the need for proper regulation to safeguard workers' rights, ensuring transparency in data usage, and fair compensation when their work is utilized for AI training. The TUC warns that without adequate protections, tech companies could take advantage of creative labor. They propose establishing a taskforce consisting of creatives, unions, and technologists to address these risks and ensure that the creative sector continues to thrive as a vital part of the economy.
AI has huge transformative potential and if regulated properly, workers could benefit from the productivity gains created by this technology.
Without adequate regulation, rapacious tech bosses would be able to exploit creative workers and cash in on their work.
The sector is a jewel in the crown of our economy and vital for growth.
