# Grayndler artists unite against 'insane' AI proposal, pressure mounts on Albanese

Artists in Anthony Albanese's own Sydney electorate of Grayndler have organised against a government AI proposal they describe as "insane," adding to disquiet in the prime minister's backyard. The backlash highlights growing concern among creative workers over how Australia regulates AI and copyrighted material. It matters because the unrest sits inside the PM's seat, raising political pressure on the government's AI policy.
