KI aber fair / German creative associations’ licensing demands and AGD’s refusal to sign

IO published a joint position demanding creators’ authorisation and remuneration, training-data transparency, and AI-output labels, arguing that repeated individual refusals were impractical while remaining open to technological progress.

AGD said it did not sign because the text’s problem framing and policy demands were too general. It advocated discussion of designers’ opportunities, risks, and professional training in AI use, and also expressed interest in disclosure of training materials.
