The article is from last month, but I haven’t seen it posted here. Disappointing to say that artists should just embrace using it yet also it’s not okay for others to use it for their own benefit that’s not making him money. It just feels very I didn’t expect the leopards to eat MY face when I gave the leopards my voice and learnings…
Some of the article highlights:
Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Teddy Swims says he sometimes uses AI when making music and has referred to AI's role in creativity as "truly amazing". "We've used AI in some things that have been really super helpful for us," Swims said. … Swims explained that while he was in Sydney, he has producers in LA who were able to use AI to change a song lyric. "Rather than me going [to] the studio and doing the line 15 times and spending that time and money and effort, he's actually been able to go in and just change the word," Swims said.
…
Swims's manager, Luke Conway, told the crowd that there were thousands of Teddy Swims AI songs uploaded to YouTube each day, which they needed to combat. … "Right, well, we need to have a different royalty structure for them.”
"They shouldn't get paid in the same way that a real artist who crafted their work, did their time, whether they're using AI or not, [is]."
