In October 2023, participants at the Creative Commons Global Summit proposed 7 principles for making AI work for Creators and the Commons. In early 2024, Open Future, Karisma, and Creative Commons hosted an interactive Alignment Assembly to better understand the extent to which these principles are shared by the broader open movement, and where the principles may generate controversy. The Assembly was designed to better understand the attitudes of content creators and curators working with open licenses towards the regulation of generative AI. In this session, we will present the results of this process for discussion with participants and explore options to put these principles into action, including through signal preferences.
