Pippa, a new AI startup, is attempting to address ethical concerns in generative AI by implementing a revenue-sharing model that directly compensates artists whose work is used to train their models. Cofounders Hogan Shrum and Sean Wright aim to set a precedent for ethical AI development, drawing parallels to the evolution of music distribution with services like Napster and Apple Music. Despite these efforts, Pippa faces challenges in convincing artists due to the small per-generation payouts and the ongoing use of models trained on unapproved artwork. AI
