Spawning is a digital media startup founded in 2022 with the slogan "AI tools for artists. Made by artists." The company aims to provide AI tools for artists while focusing on ethical and consent-driven AI development. Their first tool, haveibeentrained.com, allows users to determine if they are present in popular training datasets and opt in or out of future training, reflecting their commitment to consent-driven AI development. The company also launched Holly+, an innovative project experimenting with consensual interactions around AI models. With a recent $3.00M Seed Round investment led by True Ventures, Noise DAO, Jacob Eth, Abhay Parasnis, seedclub, Balaji Srinivisan, and Charles Songhurst on 03 May 2023, Spawning is poised to expand its offerings and make a significant impact in the digital media industry.
