Famous faces like Billie Eilish, Nicki Minaj, and Katy Perry have joined forces to sign an open letter against AI.
More details below…
The Artists Rights Alliance, backed by around 200 music artists, including those listed above have released an open letter to “cease the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to infringe upon and devalue the rights of human artists.”
The campaign spoke out against AI “copycats,” or use AI “sound” that diminish royalty obligations, according to Rolling Stone.
“Working musicians are already struggling to make ends meet in the streaming world, and now they have the added burden of trying to compete with a deluge of AI-generated noise. The unethical use of generative AI to replace human artists will devalue the entire music ecosystem — for artists and fans alike,” Jen Jacobsen, executive director of the ARA, said in a statement.
However, they want to make sure that AI is used correctly.
“Make no mistake: we believe that, when used responsibly, AI has enormous potential to advance human creativity and in a manner that enables the development and growth of new and exciting experiences for music fans everywhere. Unfortunately, some platforms and developers are employing AI to sabotage creativity and undermine artists, songwriters, musicians and rightsholders,” the artists’ open letter stated.
The news comes after several AI songs have made their way online and as politicians and regulators consider establishing protections to ensure the proper use of AI in music while compensating artists.
