A lecture by Daniel Susskind
Copyright determines one of the most important features of a society: who owns and control ideas, and, in turn, how creative and prosperous an economy can be. In the age of AI, the right intellectual property framework promises an explosion of creativity.
But if anyone can use AI to create new text, music, video, in an instant, and at little cost, what work is left for humans to do? This lecture argues the answer to this question is not ‘nothing at all’.
