Great write up. A few thoughts come to mind. Artists, due to record label avarice, have already had to double down live performance. This will only accelerate that trend.
Will the labels care? It’s a potential boon on two fronts. “Oh, this AI stuff is generating a lot of publicity for Drake” or whatever. That is, they will always approach it from a bottom line perspective rather than an ethics perspective. Secondly, it creates a whole new class of litigation targets.
Once again, the artists end up suffering the most.
