“Anthropic Urges Opt-Out Copyright Model for AI Training in Australia as ABC, SBS Demand Co” — what this page in the network covers. AI company Anthropic, maker of Claude, has called on the Albanese government to consider an opt-out model for using Australian copyrighted content in training its models, conceding it will not secure a blanket exemption. The proposal would allow tech firms to train on works unless creators opt out, but public broadcasters ABC and SBS have strongly criticized the approach, urging strict new rules to compensate media organizations and protect public interest journalism. The broadcasters warn that AI could 'cannibalise' news, undermining the sustainability of quality journalism.
The debate highlights tensions between AI innovation and copyright protection, with implications for the future of Australian media and the economy.
