Most recently, the ASA was horrified to learn that Australian authors’ books have been included in a dataset of pirated works used by Meta to train their AI systems.

There will be time at the end of the briefing for questions from members, so don’t miss this opportunity to speak directly with your peak body and your peers about this industry-wide issue.
No problem! Everyone booked in to this event will be emailed a link and passcode to access the recording afterwards. This recording will be available to view for 10 days after the live session. This also means that if you wish to revisit the session after attending it live to take further notes, you can do so!
After 10 days, the link will expire and the recording will no longer be available to view.
