In a statement, a UMG spokesperson expressed their commitment to protecting the rights of creators, emphasizing their 'moral and commercial responsibility' to safeguard their artists.
This has been met with criticism from creators who feel their work is being replicated without recompense, and even artists such as Drake have voiced their disapproval of AI-generated music. Alexander Ross, a lawyer specializing in copyright, has made clear that such duplication is illegal.
