The Recording Industry Association of America wants Discord to close a server in which users generate AI deepfake tracks mimicking famous musicians

Db0’s note: Not quite about piracy, but very very close to be relevant to us.

This is just one action in a coming conflict. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out. Does the record industry win and digital likenesses become outlawed, even taboo? Or does voice, appearance etc just become another sets of rights that musicians will have to negotiate during a record deal?

    There’s a great short fiction podcast that touches on these topics that I listened to recently on ClarkesWorld. It’s called “There Are the Art-Makers, Dreamers of Dreams, and There Are AIs”. Fiction can be an interesting way to explore how these things might play out in the future.
