Digitalfems has collaborated with the F-List to to write back a letter and consultation around the AI and: Why Musicians’ Rights Matter in the Age of AI.
The rise of AI-generated music has sparked urgent debates about artists’ rights, ownership, and fair compensation. A recent discussion highlighted The F-List—a UK database of female/non-binary musicians—and its role in advocating for ethical AI practices in the music industry.
Key Issues Raised
Copyright Challenges: How should AI models trained on artists’ work compensate creators?
The F-List’s Mission: Amplifying underrepresented voices while pushing for policies that protect human artistry in an AI-driven landscape.
Global Implications: Without guardrails, AI could exploit existing gender gaps in music (where women are already underrepresented in production/royalties).
