OVERVIEW
Purpose:
This site's objective is to inform individuals on the concerns that generative artificial intelligence poses on creative spaces and the individuals in them.
The platform features credible sources and contains originally conducted research for people to become more educated on the topic.
There are community opportunities for creators and any individuals to connect and share their perspectives.
General Information:
* This is both an ethical and legal matter
* Because AI is an emerging technology, not many are properly educated on the situation and therefore have not seen it as a threat to creators
* There is little protection for individuals to keep their work safe from being copied without their consent

WELCOME TO THE SITE!
This online community was created as part of a semester long project for school, but the goal is for it to take on a life of its own. It was made with the intention to inform on the harmful effects that the training of generative AI can have on creative fields and the people in them.
LET'S STAY IN TOUCH!
