In a rush to lure AI companies, the Australian government risks undoing a creative ecosystem that has taken decades to build | Dan Guthrie

If proposed copyright reforms proceed, Australia will become a global IP-laundering paradise. Why would a UK business license its TV shows here if they can be scraped at will?

Australia and the UK have always had a shared love of creativity. We consume each other’s TV, news, music and books. Our chefs appear on each other’s TV channels and quite frankly I was bereft when the ABC’s The Newsreader ended its run in the UK.

That shared love though, appears not to be reciprocated by the Australian government. Its rush to attract AI investment from big US tech, and the extreme copyright reforms that it believes need to go along with it, threatens a creative ecosystem that has taken decades to build.

Dan Guthrie is the director general of the Alliance for Intellectual Property in the UK
