Who really owns your data in the age of AI?
Victor, Harry, and Chris share their insights on the blurred lines between user-created content and how it’s being used to train AI models. They discuss the ethical implications, the challenges of fairly compensating data contributors, and the potential role of blockchain in creating a more transparent and equitable system.
We also explore the tough questions: How can startups ethically source data without breaking the bank? Can we find a balance between innovation and fair use? And what’s the future of data ownership as AI continues to evolve?
This is a must-listen for anyone interested in AI, data ethics, or the future of tech innovation.
