However\, those earlier innovat ions spurred new artistic genres and\, ultimately\, market expansion. We e xamine how digital creators respond to the emergence of AI tools and conse quent data governance concerns\, and how these choices reshape competition in creative markets. Using data from one of the largest industry art plat forms\, we find that AI-assisted creators intensify portfolio-building act ivities to strengthen their labor market position while creators sensitive to data governance\, i.e.\, who opt out of serving AI training datasets\, withdraw from portfolio competition. To understand how creators strategic ally adapt their portfolios in response to competitive disruption\, we lev erage Visual-Concept Modeling\, a multimodal feature extraction approach f or characterizing prototypical artifact types based on visual and conceptu al elements. We identify a concentration of homogenized content\, specific ally character concept art\, driven by AI adoption\, while AI-sensitive cr eators\, particularly freelancers and new entrants\, reduce production in AI-dominated genres without substituting for other artifact types. These f indings suggest that the allowance of AI and risk of creators' work being appropriated for AI training may undermine creators' incentives to partici pate in the market\, highlighting the urgent need for policy clarity to fo ster the long-term sustainability of creative ecosystems.\n DTSTART:20231211T153000Z DTEND:20231211T170000Z LOCATION:Room 245\, Bronfman Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 1G5\, 1001 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Information Systems & BSRM joint Seminar: Eric Zhou URL:/desautels/channels/event/information-systems-bsrm -joint-seminar-eric-zhou-369665 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
