Music giant raises alarm over AI hit
Universal Music Group wants platforms and creators to be on the “right side of history” against “deep fakes and fraud”
After a song featuring the AI-generated voices of the rappers Drake and The Weeknd went viral on Monday, the world’s biggest record label demanded a reckoning from streaming platforms. The Netherlands-based Universal Music Group (UMG), which represents both artists, has already tried to block artificial intelligence programs from accessing its catalog, but that appears to be easier said than done.
A song titled ‘heart on my sleeve’ clocked more than 15 million plays on TikTok, 625,000 on Spotify and over 230,000 on YouTube in just a few hours, before the platforms moved to take it down for copyright infringement.
Drake and The Weeknd are both represented by Republic Records, a subsidiary of UMG. The Dutch-based label is the world’s largest, with a market share greater than all independents combined.
After the incident, UMG issued a statement insisting that having AI generate music from their artists’ catalog “begs the question as to which side of history all stakeholders in the music ecosystem want to be on: the side of artists, fans and human creative expression, or on the side of deep fakes, fraud and denying artists their due compensation.”
Platforms “have a fundamental legal and ethical responsibility to prevent the use of their services in ways that harm artists,” the label added.
Various AI programs have become so advanced that they are now able to replicate both music and the voices of artists, threatening UMG’s massive catalog worth billions of dollars. The label regards AI-generated music as an existential threat to its business model.
Earlier this month, UMG sent a letter to streaming platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify and Pandora, asking them to block AI from accessing its catalog. The company has “a moral and commercial responsibility to our artists to work to prevent the unauthorized use of their music,” a spokesman told CNN on Tuesday.
“I’m not sure how effective this will be as AI services will likely still be able to access the copyrighted material one way or another,” Karl Fowlkes, an entertainment and business attorney in New York, told CNN.
Fowlkes argued that the government should “explicitly ban” AI companies from using copyrighted work to train their models. Copyright is intended to protect original art, “not works created by machines that used the original art to create new work,” he said.
The US Copyright Office issued new guidance in March saying that it will decide on a case-by-case basis whether AI-generated work can be copyrighted, explaining that this depends on whether something is merely a “mechanical reproduction” or the result of an author’s “own original mental conception, to which [the author] gave visible form.”
DJ and producer David Guetta demonstrated in February how easy it was to create new music using two AI programs, ChatGPT for lyrics and Uberduck for vocals. After just an hour, he had a rap song that sounded like the work of Eminem. Guetta played it at one of his shows, but said he would never release it commercially.
“That is an ethical problem that needs to be addressed because it sounds crazy to me that today I can type lyrics and it’s going to sound like Drake is rapping it, or Eminem,” he said at the time.

AMLO Tells Mexican People USA is Spying on Them and U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency is Manipulating Media
April 18, 2023 | Sundance | 57 Comments
CTH will keep repeating the words, WATCH MEXICO. Ever since Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez-Obrador confronted Joe Biden in the oval office about energy policy, things have increasingly escalated. {Direct Rumble Link} There is going to be a U.S-Mexico confrontation soon.
Mexico (AMLO), along with Hungary (Orban), is a target of the Biden administration for a color revolution, a manipulated uprising to overthrow the government. It is absolutely not coincidental that Victor Orban and Lopez-Obrador, both spoke out publicly against the President Trump criminal prosecution. In the geopolitical world the nationalist leaders see exactly what is happening.
In the latest stunning development, Mexican President AMLO calls out the United States Government for spying on the Mexican military. Additionally, and given the nature of the issues at hand this is even bigger, AMLO tells the Mexican people the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) is actively conducting propaganda operations in the country, including the use of Mexican media. AMLO is saying this stuff out loud folks. WATCH:
👀
Keep in mind, it wasn’t just President Trump who blocked the migrants and secured the U.S. southern border, it was AMLO using 50,000+ active military to stop the migration flow of illegal aliens. It’s not a surprise that AMLO is letting the caravans flow to the border, while Biden is trying to undermine the Mexican government.
For those of you who remember the role of Tunisia, Morocco, Libya, Egypt and ultimately Turkey in the African migration flow into Europe; you might find a parallel within the current status of Mexico as it pertains to Central America. Remember, the U.S. intelligence community are conducting operations in Mexico, be leery of any headline stories coming out of the country. Something is going to happen… Keep Watching.
MEXICO CITY, April 18 (Reuters) – Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Tuesday accused the Pentagon of spying on his government following leaks in U.S. media, and said he would begin classifying information from the armed forces to protect national security.
His comments came several days after the Washington Post reported on apparent tensions between Mexico’s Navy and the Army, citing a U.S. military briefing revealed in online leaks of secret U.S. military records.
“We’re now going to safeguard information from the Navy and the Defense Ministry, because we’re being a target of spying by the Pentagon,” Lopez Obrador told his daily news conference.
A Pentagon spokesman said the U.S. Department of Defense has a “strong collaborative defense partnership” with Mexico’s Army and Navy, and that the entities tackle common challenges “while respecting each other’s sovereignty and respective foreign policy agendas.”
The Pentagon has previously called the leak a “deliberate, criminal act.”
[…] On Monday, Lopez Obrador had described the U.S. intelligence in the leaks as an “abusive, overbearing intrusion that should not be accepted under any circumstance,” adding that he did not plan to rebuke the U.S., but would at some point discuss “conditions for collaborative work.” (read more)
