– What collective licensing is , and why it is so well suited for failed markets such as generative AI
– The measures different countries and regions have taken to address creators’ rights issues with generative AI
– How collective licensing is being considered as a solution to remunerate creators and rights holders
– Why there may not be a single solution for all types of creative works, and how collective licensing works particularly well for visual artists
