Photo Studio Operations New York 2023

Can we?
If so, how and with whom?

 

In a little more than a year, generative AI has reshaped the visual media landscape. The implications are profound – for what we do and how we do it – and how we might profit from it.

Questions concerning its legality and the ethics of its use abound – they have just started making their way through the courts. And so, the creative mind turns to “How may we profit from this revolution?”   Some questions photographers and studio operations, far and wide, are already asking:  

• Is there money to be made in shooting content for training data?
• Can I leverage and exploit my already existing archive to generate revenue from dataset sales?
• What subjects are needed for generative AI training data? 
• What if I want to shoot real models? 
• Do I need special legal documents? 
• What's up with GDPR, BIPA and PII? 
• Who are the vendors we can trust to onboard us into this exciting new world?

  Mark Milstein, co-founder and rainmaker at vAIsual, a pioneer in AI-generated media, will bring attendees up to speed on the state of this industry-altering tech, and provide concrete insights into how to safely navigate the synthetic media tsunami.
