Protect Artists From AI
Rejected
20 signatures
What the petition asks
Artists need to be protected and credited with their work. Why is it that if someone else uses an artists work they get copyrighted but AI uses the work it doesn’t? AI should not be allowed to the general public to create “art” or be used to feed already existing art into it to make something new.
Why it was rejected
It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you would like to protect artists from AI, but we don't know which sort of art you mean.
