Cadence Weapon never gave artificial intelligence permission to learn from his music. But the Edmonton-raised rapper, born Rollie Pemberton, says he recently found 129 of his songs in datasets used to train AI music generators.
Concerns come as music industry pushes for rules requiring AI companies to compensate songwriters and musicians whose work helps power their systems
The article is devoted to a comprehensive analysis of modern problems of protecting musical works in the context of the rapid development of digital technologies. The author considers the transformation of the music industry from analog media to online platforms, focusing on the scale of legal and illegal distribution of content, as well as the emergence of new threats in the form of streaming piracy, illegal copying, the use of AI, and digital remixing. The work presents the evolution of the copyright system —…
Series Entertainment’s “RUN,” a new platform that lets users create new games while shortening the window for building them down to days.
Australia has banned songs that are largely or wholly generated by AI from its official music charts, requiring eligible releases to be ‘substantially human made’.
Under the new rules, humans must have written the song and performed the lead vocal and primary instruments for a release to be eligible.
Tracks can be eligible only if “humans wrote the song and performed the lead vocal and the primary instruments,” among other requirements.
This study employs stylometry to investigate whether the creative writing styles of humans and large language models (LLMs) such as GPT-3.5, GPT-4, and Llama 70b can be distinguished through quantitative analysis. A balanced dataset of short stories composed in response to predefined narrative prompts forms the basis of the analysis. Burrows’ Delta, a widely used metric in computational literary studies, is applied to measure stylistic similarity and difference across texts. By focusing on the distribution of th…
With the rapid application of Generative AI technologies in image generation, style transfer, and creative assistance, the process and logic of artistic creation are undergoing a profound transformation.However, research on how AI art platforms influence creators' subjectivity remains limited, and few studies have systematically examined users' real-world experiences.To bridge this gap, this study investigated three representative AI art platforms -Midjourney, Runway ML, and Stable Diffusion -using a mixed-metho…
This year, the battle for song of the summer has been eclipsed by a much more complicated – some would even say disturbing – debate. That’s because we find ourselves asking not “What’s the song of the summer?” but rather “Is the song of the summer even real?” Among the top contenders for the title is Fenix Flexin’s Rubberz, a single released in June that has ascended to No 58 on the Billboard Hot 100 and racked up more than 35m Spotify streams. It’s not the sort of fare Fenix usually cooks up. The artist is know…
As artificial intelligence (AI) systems evolve from assistive to agentic capable of autonomous planning, decision-making, and content generation existing evaluation frameworks struggle to capture their broader organizational and ethical implications. Most assessments of newsroom AI focus narrowly on technical accuracy or efficiency, overlooking how such systems reshape trust, governance, and human collaboration. This study conducts a systematic literature review of 46 peer-reviewed and institutional sources (201…
To compare the prognostic performance of an artificial intelligence (AI) model with that of experienced clinicians in predicting tooth loss over a 10-year period. An AI model trained on structured clinical and radiographic data was compared with 12 periodontists and 11 general dentists (GDs), who independently assigned prognostic scores (0-10 scale) to 300 teeth with known 10-year outcomes. AI and clinician performance were evaluated under a fixed threshold and group-specific optimal thresholds. Accuracy, sensit…
Look, we all want Brooke Shields to be in gainful employment. We all want her to have a fabulous third act to her career. God knows, the child model turned star of prurient fever dreams Pretty Baby and The Blue Lagoon (and the “Nothing comes between me and my Calvins” jeans ad campaign when she was 15) has earned it. Plus, she did a fine turn in Friends and a number of us remember Suddenly Susan very fondly. But she’s terrible in the terrible new thing she’s in, which is a six-part comedy drama called You’re Kil…
Ai Weiwei is talking me through the decision-making process before his first visit to China in over a decade. The artist, known around the world as the most famous critic of the Chinese communist regime, had to do some fraught arithmetic before deciding to head back home. Before boarding a flight with his son, who had never met the artist’s elderly mother, Ai thought back to his time in detention when his captors told him he would spend the next 13 years in custody on bogus charges: “They said, ‘When you come ou…
