Record labels propose rules to keep AI music out of the charts
The three largest record labels – Universal Music Group, Sony Music and Warner Music Group – have proposed that AI-generated music should be excluded from international music charts unless it meets strict criteria. The track must be "substantially human made", respect the terms for the AI system used, and not raise concerns about stream or chart manipulation.
WHY IT MATTERS
The proposal marks the record label industry's attempt to control the influx of AI-generated music through commercial channels, and addresses concerns about copyright, artist rights and market manipulation.
