Hosted by: Craig Tuch and Roland Hulme with special guest Julie Trelstad
As AI continues to reshape the publishing landscape, authors are being pulled into a complex debate around data, rights, and compensation. In this week’s episode of Fully Booked, we’re joined by publishing veteran Julie Trelstad to explore how writers can protect and profit from their work in an increasingly AI-integrated world. Julie introduces Amlet, a forward-looking rights registry designed to help authors retain control over how their content is used in training and generating AI tools, and discusses the growing movement toward standardized digital identifiers across the industry.
From understanding what current and future AI models are really looking for to navigating the legal gray areas of past data scraping, this conversation offers a fascinating and compelling look at what’s next for digital rights management. We also examine how the publishing industry is experimenting with new licensing models and why authors must begin thinking beyond traditional copyright. If you’re wondering how to futureproof your work or strategically engage with the rise of AI, this episode is essential listening.
