The example of Wikipedia editors pushing back against AI generated summaries is instead encouraging. As part of effective regulatory frameworks, we need to devise ways for AI-affected people/humans to express their voice, mechanisms we can’t even fully envisage yet, both at the public institutional level (learnings from the Dutch scandal?) and in private institutions (Mitrechtsomething) or market settings (UI, choices, data portability, etc.).

authorities? What happened with Meta's legitimate interest push to
swallow up our data is frustrating to say the least (fully agree with Louisa Specht-Riemenschneider ).
