At present, few issues pervade the music conversation quite like the regulation of AI. With more music creation tools cropping up driven by artificial intelligence, many worry that the human creators of the source material on which they are trained aren’t being attributed and compensated fairly. German-British composer and pianist Max Richter made his thoughts on the matter known earlier this week, when he gave a speech to MPs calling for greater protection for music creators… The post “Music is the closest thing humanity has to magic – but it will fade into history unless we support creators’ rights”: Max Richter blasts proposals to allow AI companies to train models on copyrighted material appeared first on MusicTech.

Ever wondered what’s in your morning cereal? Easy – just turn the packaging over and, by law, you’ll see the maker’s clear list of ingredients. Flick on a morning playlist, however, and there’s no immediate way to tell if the song you’re listening to is real or AI-generated. AI content is filling up streaming platforms. Some mimic the voices of living artists, some the voices of the deceased, and some are batch-generated and posted under the name of entirely fictional artists. All of it draws revenue away from working musicians. A recent study by MusicMagpie, estimates that, on YouTube alone, there are already well over 1.5 million AI cover tracks. After analysing the 1,500 top-performing AI tracks, they found that Blackpink, Justin Bieber, and Kanye West were out in front as the most AI-plagiarised artists, racking up over 33 million views between them...

Both Paul McCartney and Elton John have spoken out against proposed changes to UK copyright law, which could allow AI developers to mine from creators’ content on the internet. The suggested change would mean creative works could be used to develop AI models unless the rights holders actively opt out. Many have argued that an artist would face a lot of difficulty in trying to contact thousands of different AI companies to do so, and that keeping track of where their creations have been used across the web would be incredibly challenging...

Eletctro-pop pioneer Gary Numan has always been drawn to the world of technology. 1979 saw him releasing two tracks pondering a tech-infused future, with Tubeway Army’s Are ‘Friends’ Electric? topping UK charts and solo track Metal pondering humanoid robots. However, the advancing capabilities of AI in music have changed his previous fascination with technology to something closer to horror. “The new album I’m working on now is devoted entirely to Al and how it might impact humanity,” he admits in the latest issue of Blitzed. “I’m fascinated and horrified in equal measure.” ...
