We in Game Workers Unite Ireland stand in solidarity with Animation Workers of Ireland, and the international trade union coalition happening to organise against the threat of AI in the animation industry, and we support their call to acton.
Join them Thursday 12 June at 14:00 at the Pâquier in Annecy!!
#Animation

ANIMATION INDUSTRY IN DANGER : WORLD UNIONS DECLARE EMERGENCY IN THE FACE OF GENERATIVE Al USE. Graphic with the text Let's Stop AI Generated Art.
ENGLISH VERSION

This statement was composed by a collective of international Animation Unions, federations, and organisations calling for action in regards to the usage of generative Artificial Intelligence and its destructive impact, not only on the global animation industry and the craft itself, but also on everyone who is employed by it, our culture and our planet. The animation industry is suffering, after the explosion of the streaming bubble and the pandemic. The workers are feeling the …
This same technology is being used to foster dissent, confusion and distrust among the public. This unchecked growth and unjustified techno-optimism comes with incredible environmental consequences, including expanding demand for computing power, larger carbon footprints, shifts in patterns of electricity and water demands and an accelerated depletion of natural resources. As such, there is a need for protection frameworks around GenAl, centered around transparency, compensation, control on the…
We invite all workers, students and allies to join us in Annecy festival, to discuss concerns and defense against GenAl, and to hear unions representatives read the statement on Thursday, June 12th, at 2 PM, on the Paquier (and then a map graphic)
