Australia Seeks Licensing Protections For Creative Content

Australia’s creative and media sectors today addressed Parliament in Canberra, calling for licensing safeguards for AI training and fair compensation for creators. Speakers including Attorney-General Michelle Rowland, industry leaders and artists highlighted Australia's 2025 decision to reject a text-and-data-mining exception and noted the sector contributes A$67 billion to the national economy. The coalition argued licensing already exists across journalism, music, publishing and visual media and urged policymakers to uphold copyright protections.
