A bipartisan group of U.S. senators, including Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn, have introduced a bill that would protect creatives and journalists from the unauthorized use of their work by artificial intelligence (AI). The Associated Press reports that the “Content Origin Protection and Integrity from Edited and Deepfaked Media Act” (COPIED Act) would require developers and providers of AI tools to allow content owners to attach to their work information documenting the origin and history of the asset. Any content with this attachment could not be used to train AI models or generate AI content. News Channel 5 has the story.
