Australians are worried about the rise of AI – and they have every right to be.

A recent survey of 新萄京娱乐 members in the creative and media industries found that 71% are extremely concerned about the loss of human-led creativity.

Big Tech and AI developers—including Meta, Google, and OpenAI—have scraped millions of images, songs, articles, and films without consent, compensation, or knowledge. This isn’t innovation—it’s theft. These business models displace human work and undermine the integrity of our cultural and media landscape.

That’s why we are now demanding these big AI developers pay up!

Why it matters:

• Accuracy and ethics at risk: AI-generated content can spread misinformation and erode public trust.
• Human creativity undermined: artists, writers, performers, and media professionals are being replaced by machine-made imitations.
• Jobs and integrity threatened: without strong protections, the creative and media workforce—and the democratic role it plays—will be hollowed out.

We need strong laws to protect Australia’s creative and media workforce. AI developers must be forced to pay for the theft and displacement of work.

That’s why 新萄京娱乐 is demanding these big AI developers pay up – with compensation passed on to creative and media workers.
