Artists in Albanese's own seat revolt over AI copyright plan

Creative workers in Australian PM Anthony Albanese's inner-Sydney seat of Grayndler are protesting a government proposal that could let AI companies use Australians' online work by default. The electorate hosts over 3,000 creative businesses. Labor is weighing copyright changes as part of wider AI reforms, while Anthropic has suggested an opt-out model. Draft laws are expected by year-end.
