Billie Eilish, Nicki Minaj, Chuck D, Jonas Brothers, Frank Sinatra Estate Among 200+ Signing Letter Warning Of AI In Music Biz


An open letter from the Artists Rights Alliance and signed by more than 200 in the music and entertainment industries seeks protections from AI.

It adds: “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. The letter says it is seeking to “protect against the predatory use of AI to steal professional artists’ voices and likenesses, violate creators’ rights, and destroy the music ecosystem.” It was a main sticking point for both the Writers Guild and SAG-AFTRA in their respective strikes last year, resulting in seven months of industry upheaval before gains in those areas were made.
