Welp. We just caught our first “AI Music Artist” at work today. Someone pushing a completely non-existing creation as a whole person/artist with a whole album, attempting to get it signed. Had it not been for me doing a deep dive into the background of this person… the label would have fallen for it.
It’s been getting scary for a while… but now, as an established music exec and musician…. I am fkin TERRIFIED.

Writing my grad thesis atm that has nothing to do with AI as such and I want to write a bit on why I will not use LLMs in my work in the ethics section. We do have the standard "Was AI used in this work: Yes/No"- section to fill that gets added into these now, but I feel like that isn't enough. I need to make a stand, because that's me.
So, anyone who has seen very good citable works on the harms of AI, from the pov of:
Labor rights
Environmental impact
Learning
Etc.
Do share.

Educators have been hit harder than most by generative AI. @brianmerchant spoke with some of the people affected, some of whom have already lost their jobs as a result of AI, and some who are attempting to educate the new generation. "Increasingly my students genuinely do not understand why they should not use AI anyway... what is the point of ‘wasting’ days researching and writing an essay when the AI version will be as good or even better?" says one university lecturer.

AI music generator samples from 2023 now compiled in my Soundcloud. I was an early tester for Google's MusicLM, now MusicFX. In less than 3 years, AI music generators went from sideshow to industry powerhouse. Compare to my Suno playlist for full effect. #music #AI
