In this episode of The Digital Executive, host Brian Thomas engages with Eric Burgess, founder of Credtent.org, a groundbreaking platform that champions ethical AI development while empowering creators. Eric shares his journey from a seasoned tech innovator at companies like Disney and Microsoft to creating Credtent, a public benefit corporation that ensures artists and content creators retain control and receive fair compensation when their works are used to train AI systems.
Eric discusses how Credtent’s licensing model provides creators with agency, allowing them to monetize their work or opt out of AI training. He highlights Credtent’s role as an “orchestration layer,” much like Apple’s disruption of MP3 theft, creating a fair marketplace for AI training data. Eric also explores the intersection of his passions for writing, gamification design, and tech marketing in shaping tools that engage creators while protecting their rights.
Looking ahead, Eric envisions a future where human creativity and AI form a symbiotic relationship, enhancing artistic endeavors without compromising ethical standards. Through Credtent, he aims to foster a world where creators thrive alongside AI, maintaining the emotional depth and iterative joy that define the human creative process. Don’t miss this insightful conversation on building a more equitable and ethical AI-driven future.
