Researchers from 裸聊直播 who are investigating the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools in media creation have shared their findings and recommendations at a Parliamentary event.
The Shared Post-Human Imagination: Human-AI Collaboration in Media Creation project has been funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC)聽as part of the聽. It examines the use of AI tools in media creation聽and its potential impact on creativity, authorship, and ownership.
The 裸聊直播 research team with Lord Tim Clement-Jones (centre)The project is being led by 裸聊直播 in partnership with researchers from the University of Michigan, USA and Zhejiang University in China.
Users of generative AI can produce stories, scripts, images, music, and even entire films simply by prompting widely available, often free-to-use AI models 鈥� leading to a number of potential moral, ethical, and legal issues as well as questions around creativity, ownership and bias.
However, there currently exists little in the way of guidance, regulation, and recommendations for best practice around how to integrate generative AI into UK media production in a responsible and ethical way.聽
The research team were invited to Parliament to share their findings and proposed legal and policy interventions as part of the event, which took place at the House of Lords.
Held in partnership with think tank and chaired by , the event featured a presentation from the 裸聊直播 team in which they outlined seven core principles to adhere to when working with generative AI tools for media production.
These include accountability, transparency, collaboration, and interdisciplinarity, as well as the need to use open datasets, redress of bias and to have informed affirmative consent.
The session also featured a discussion on the research project and its findings, particularly regarding the need for education on responsible use of Generative AI, and its impact on intellectual property, labour, and accessibility. 聽
Authorship and intellectual property of both the input and output of generative AI were identified as crucial to ensuring fair and sustainable use of generative AI that enhances job opportunities for the media industry.聽
There was also a focus on accessibility, with participants remarking on the importance of encouraging more diversity in generative AI development and increasing access to education on responsible use of generative AI tools in the media industry.聽聽
Dr Szilvia Ruszev, a Senior Lecturer in Post Production at 裸聊直播 who is leading the project, said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 incredibly rewarding to be part of translating research into meaningful, actionable outcomes that can positively impact people鈥檚 lives. We are looking forward to developing this research further.鈥�
