Creative Industries Weekly AI News

March 16 - March 24, 2026

This week brought important news about how artificial intelligence is changing creative industries around the world. In the United States, Otis College of Art and Design announced a major research report that will explore how AI is affecting artists, designers, and creative workers. The report will look at jobs in movies, animation, video games, and other creative fields. Meanwhile, in the United Kingdom, the government made a big decision about whether AI companies need to pay artists and creators when they use their work to train AI systems. The UK government decided to wait and gather more information before making new copyright laws. A group representing actors and performers in the UK said they are disappointed but hopeful that creators will get fair payment for their work in the future. These developments show that countries around the world are trying to figure out how to make AI work fairly for both technology companies and creative professionals. Many creative workers are worried that AI companies are using their art and performances without permission or payment. At the same time, AI developers say they need access to creative work to build better AI systems. The decisions being made this week will help shape how these two groups work together in the coming years.
