Spotify does not plan to outlaw music created by AI
The owner of Spotify thinks that as long as artificial intelligence-generated entertainment doesn't mimic musicians, he won't mind watching it.

In a recent interview with BBC News, Daniel Ek, the owner of Spotify, stated that the firm will not outlaw anything made with artificial intelligence. Spotify took down a song earlier this year that had AI versions of Drake and The Weeknd's voices.
Ek said that while there were legitimate applications for technology in the music industry, AI shouldn't be used to mimic real musicians without their permission. He predicts that there will be a "many, many years" of dispute with AI.
He clarified his position by stating that there are three "buckets" of AI applications: tools for enhancing music, tools for artist imitation, and tools that draw inspiration from artists but do not mimic them. Technologies for making music better, in his opinion, are fine; however, technologies for copying musicians are not.
He remarked, "It is going to be tricky," regarding the difficulties the music business faces.
AI is starting to challenge artists more and more. Irish artist Hozier recently declared that he would think about going on strike in response to AI's danger to his line of work.
"It's conceivable that someone would upload a song and falsely claim to be Madonna. At this point, we've witnessed almost everything that has happened to Spotify in terms of users attempting to manipulate the system," Mr. Ek stated. "These kinds of problems are being worked on by a very large team of ours."
