European Songwriters Worry AI Threatens Earnings

The Rise of Artificial Intelligence in the Music Industry

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in the music industry is on the rise, according to a report commissioned by GEMA and SACEM. A significant 35% of German and French collective management society members surveyed admitted to using some form of AI in their work with music. However, despite their usage of the technology, 71% of these creators fear that AI will make it challenging for them to earn a living. This suggests that even those who embrace AI are not exempt from concerns about its impact.
