08.02.2025 19:23 โ ๐ 5 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 08 February 2025 Cancel the Christie's AI Art Auction Nicole Sales Giles & Sebastian Sanchez Christieโs, New York Dear Nicole and Sebastian, We are writing to express serious concern over your upcoming auction of AI art at Christieโs. Many of the artworks you plan to auction were created using AI models that are known to be trained on copyrighted work without a license. These models, and the companies behind them, exploit human artists, using their work without permission or payment to build commercial AI products that compete with them. Your support of these models, and the people who use them, rewards and further incentivizes AI companiesโ mass theft of human artistsโ work. We ask that, if you have any respect for human artists, you cancel the auction. Yours sincerely, The undersigned artists
๐ดCALLING ALL ARTISTS๐ด
