Human Consent Registry

 Cate Blanchett introduced a powerful concept in the EU parliament in Brussels, and we should all hear about it.

The Human Consent Registery allows every human to indicate whether their work, identity, characters, and marks can be used by AI.

How this works is simple:

RSL Media makes creative rights readable at AI scale. It gives trusted registries, representatives, and rightsholders a common way to publish consent, restrictions, and licensing paths.

As an idea, it is what we need. Urgently.

Meta scrapped its Muse tool because of the backlash. As a creator, when I put an image on Insta, it is 'public' for the consumption of other humans. That permission cannot, ipso facto, include consent to be used for AI training.

It is time to give humans control over what we generate - who can see it, who can use it, and how.

On second thoughts, i think the default should be opt out for all humans. Unless someone says you can, you can't. Simple.
