The brief

Condensed for Orbit. Full 116-page prompts stay in the Art OS document.

Run the weekly originality and ethics briefing for visual work.
Cover:
1) Line between studying a living artist's STRUCTURE and cloning their marks, characters, or brand world.
2) Public domain / Creative Commons / museum open-access vs "I found it on Pinterest."
3) Training-data lookalikes: when an Imagine result is too close to a living artist and what to do.
4) Safe "inspired by" language vs dishonest attribution.
5) Photo reference of people: consent, faces in public, no surveillance framing.
6) An 8-question checklist before posting or sending to a client.
7) 3 rewrite examples of bad captions → honest captions.
