Elton John and Dua Lipa seek protection from AI
Briefly

Dua Lipa, Sir Elton John, and over 400 other British artists have urged Prime Minister Keir Starmer to amend copyright laws to ensure protection from artificial intelligence exploitation. In a letter, signatories expressed concerns that without such changes, they risk giving away their work to technology companies, potentially harming the UK's status as a creative hub. They advocate for transparency in AI model training, linked to Baroness Beeban Kidron's proposed amendment, to enable fair licensing agreements that safeguard human-created content.
We are wealth creators, we reflect and promote the national stories, we are the innovators of the future, and AI needs us as much as it needs energy and computer skills.
The letter signed by more than 400 British musicians, writers and artists states that failing to give copyright protection would mean "giving away" their work to tech firms.
