Writers Published an Empty Book Against Artificial Intelligence

Artists and writers in the United Kingdom have expressed a very serious and notable protest against artificial intelligence companies. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to The Guardian, more than ten thousand writers planned to publish a textless book in protest against the unauthorized use of their works. This book contains neither stories nor novels, only a list of authors.

The project, titled "Don't Steal This Book," involved world-renowned figures such as TV presenter Richard Osman, famous novelist Philip Gregory, and Nobel laureate Kazuo Ishiguro. Copies of this special book were distributed to participants at a book fair held in London.

The organizer of the project, composer Ed Newton-Rex, openly stated that the artificial intelligence industry is often built on the unauthorized and unpaid labor of creators. He emphasized that this process is not a victimless crime because artificial intelligence learns from human works and then competes with them, depriving the original authors of their source of income.

For this reason, he called on the government to protect local creators and to abandon the idea of legalizing unauthorized use of works. This is not the first silent protest, as thousands of musicians previously released their silent album.

They also opposed the government's plans to grant additional privileges to artificial intelligence developers. Creators in Britain have begun the fight against artificial intelligence in courtrooms and before the public.

The textless book and silent albums have now become a vivid symbol of this struggle. Their main conclusion is that every work is not just simple content but the result of human labor, and creativity should never remain free raw material.
