Protect creators' rights: require AI firms to disclose training data

It has been almost four years since generative AI technology was made available to the public. During this time, the severely negative impact it has on the job market and the environment has been proven again and again. However, governments across the world have failed to react appropriately. To this day, human creators whose work has been used to train large language models (LLMs) have no way to corroborate so, and therefore, cannot enforce their ownership rights.

Until 29 October 2026, there is a petition to the UK Parliament seeking to fix this issue. It asks for the introduction of a statutory duty requiring AI developers to disclose their training sources and information. As with all petitions submitted through this channel, if this one gets 10,000 signatures before the deadline, the government will respond to it. If the number surpasses 100,000, it will be considered for debate in Parliament.

Creators need clear rules and regulations that ensure their work is used with consent, proper licensing and fair remuneration. We can't allow the companies behind this technology to keep cannibalizing human knowledge and imagination, to then sell them back to us as commodities.

If you are a British resident or citizen, please sign the petition. And, no matter where you are in the world, shares are appreciated:
