World3 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported48m ago
Australia’s recorded music industry has introduced new guidelines that prohibit tracks wholly generated by artificial intelligence from appearing on official music charts. Effective this Friday, the rules mandate that all eligible music must be substantially human-made. The policy change was announced by an industry representative on Tuesday.
The initiative aims to protect the livelihoods of human artists and preserve the human nature of artistry in response to the rise of generative technologies. This regulatory shift follows recent industry concerns regarding the impact of AI-produced content on the music landscape.
