This comes after Elon Musk shared a deepfake video of Vice President Kamala Harris saying things she’d never said on his X platform.

US Courts Face Puzzle as Music Labels Sue Over AI

Udio, an artificial intelligence (AI) music website, seems to be imitating songs written and produced by actual people, flouting the rights of artists globally. This shows how music generated by artificial intelligence is not based on its own creativity but rather by “stealing” the labor and creativity of others. This explains why earlier this year, artists such as Stevie Wonder, Nicki Minaj, Billie Eilish and Tift Merritt, among others, penned a letter warning that music generated by artificial intelligence trained on their own works could sideline artists and destroy creativity. The use of artificial intelligence in this way has big…
