Why Medium is opting out of AI

Equity

NOTE

Navigating the Digital Landscape Requires Integrity

The current landscape of AI development reveals significant ethical dilemmas regarding the use of content created by individuals. Companies using AI to learn from existing written works are not adequately compensating creators, raising concerns about fairness and ownership. There is a notable trend of various media properties opting out of collaborations with these AI companies, leading to ongoing legal disputes. The competition within the AI sector will intensify around the quality of training data, prompting a battle where access to superior materials becomes crucial. As companies like OpenAI strive for differentiation in a market dominated by established players like Google, the risk of compromising quality and ethics looms large. The industry must address these challenges to ensure equitable progress and support emerging entities while safeguarding the rights of content creators.
