Artists’ heirs are talking out on AI abuse. Our submitting for Abby North, Marcia Withers, Blake Morgan, Angela Rose White, Owen Elliot-Kugell, Georgia Music Companions, Louisiana Music Companions and the Artist Rights Institute within the White Home AI session urges OSTP to guard the legacies of America’s creators from artificial “resurrections” and unauthorized deepfakes. Cultural heritage isn’t coaching information.
The regulation should defend actuality itself. We urge the Administration to confront the exploitation of featured and nonfeatured artists’ likeness, voice, instrumental tone and legacy by unregulated AI platforms. The submitting calls on OSTP to acknowledge that AI fashions constructed on copyrighted works and private information with out consent create lasting hurt to cultural heritage. It proposes enforceable federal requirements for provenance, consent, and an auditable proper to be forgotten from AI reminiscence—as a result of a free society can’t thrive in a corridor of mirrors that forgets who’s wanting into it.
