Huge thanks to @MaryMay_ling and @The_TUC for inviting me to speak at today's #TUCAIatWork Conference. Lots of important discussion about the impact of AI on the performing arts and other crucial industries, and the vital role of trade unions.
TUC Economics and Social Affairs@TUCeconomics

We now move onto our third panel at #TUCAIatWork Conference. In this panel, chaired by our own @MaryMay_ling, we'll drill down into the sectoral implications of Artificial Intelligence, drawing on the deep expertise of the trade union movement.

The government abandoning their reckless data mining exception policy is a huge victory for Equity members, who have worked tirelessly in lobbying their local MPs to Stop AI Stealing the Show.

2/ I am extremely pleased to say that in response, the Minister confirmed to me that these plans will be halted, pending further consultation. This is a huge win for millions employed in creative spaces across the UK, and I look forward to seeing the updated proposals.
