The Independent underscores the critical role of journalism in navigating pivotal issues like reproductive rights, climate change, and the influence of Big Tech. Donors help fund reporters who investigate pressing stories, emphasizing accessibility in journalism without paywalls. Simultaneously, Sir Elton John and Simon Cowell advocate against proposed copyright rule relaxations that would let AI companies use creators' work without proper remuneration. They argue this would threaten the UK’s creative sector—a globally envied industry reliant on strong copyright protections—and risk erasing the livelihoods of artists and creative professionals.
"Sir Elton John and Simon Cowell have called on the Government to rethink proposals to relax copyright rules in a bid to protect creative talent from artificial intelligence (AI)."
"Under the proposals, creators would need to opt out to prevent their work from being used, which risks undermining the creative sector's success and position globally."
