Head's Up & Sorry Author Friends, My gov's latest decision is gen ai companies don't need licenses to train their gen ai on ANYONE'S work within Australia. All authors get is an opt out. Author's Guild have concerns about how well that opt out will work, and so do I. Sign your opposition in link!

authorsguild.orgAustralia May Legalize AI Training on Your Books. Sign a Statement Opposing It.The Australian government has announced that it is planning to introduce legislation that would change copyright law to allow AI companies to use authors’ work, without a license, to build their model...

The reason why this was such an effective response is that El-Sayed focused on the *frame* of the question (the unspoken context and assumptions) rather than the surface-level question itself. The real question is always underneath. When you address *that,* their whole house of cards falls down.
