“I think it’s cool to be fused w/ a machine and I like the idea of open sourcing [sic] all art and killing copyright,” she wrote. Copyright happens to be the hottest topic around the AI music industry shift. It’s almost analogous to how giant AI labs have “indiscriminately” used artwork for training their models without explicit permission from the artists. One of the most well-known examples is that of Stability AI, which was recently slapped with a lawsuit by Getty for using copyright-protected images to train its Stable Diffusion image engine without a proper license.
Scraping an artist’s voice is going to be no different. Voice artists in the gaming industry are already rallying against contracts wherein a studio not only wants to avail their services but also seeks ownership over the likeness of their voice to be used in future products. With Grimes speaking up about a seemingly fair contract covering her own voice and offering an incentive on her own, the music industry is almost certainly going to pay keen attention.
It remains to be seen how streaming services receive tracks that have been AI-generated. It’s actually a rather interesting turn of events. Grimes is the ex-wife of Elon Musk, who recently signed an open letter demanding a pause on the further development of AI that is as smart as OpenAI’s GPT-4 natural language model. In a FOX interview earlier this month, Musk went a step ahead and claimed that AI is capable of “civilizational destruction.”
