  • Over 400 Hollywood celebrities and creatives have signed a petition urging President Donald Trump not to loosen AI copyright regulations.

The article from Movieguide discusses Hollywood's concerns over the use of copyrighted material by artificial intelligence (AI) systems.

They argue that AI technologies, which learn from vast datasets including copyrighted movies, TV shows, and music, could undermine the value of creative works and the livelihoods of those in the entertainment industry.
