Creative Commons held a one-day workshop before kickstarting the CC Global Summit 2023 in Mexico City. The purpose of the workshop was to discuss issues related to Artificial Intelligence, creators, and the commons, and to help Creative Commons and the global community navigate the emerging issues in the face of generative AI and its impact on the commons.
