It is very easy to see why artists might not be happy." ![]() A huge amount of effort and investment has gone into developing Drake and The Weeknd and building their value, and arguably what is happening here could be described plagiarism of their brands… This is potentially problematic to both the industry, and also to the artists. "The use of AI in the music industry is a double-edged sword, with tensions arising from its potential to undermine the value of human creativity juxtaposed with its potential to augment it" he said of the Spotify case, adding "AI is demonstrating its potential to undermine talent.
