Sony Music removes over 75,000 AI-generated contents

Sony Music has revealed the scale of its battle against the AI forgery of its artists, stating that it has taken down more than 75,000 AI-generated materials. Sony provided this data in its submission to the UK government's consultation on copyright rules. Sony is concerned that these rules will exacerbate the damage caused by AI to the music industry. Sony said that AI-generated recordings on music streaming services have caused direct commercial damage to legitimate recording artists. A UK proposal would allow AI companies to use various contents for model training for free in the UK. Copyright holders need to apply for a specific opt-out to be exempted. Sony said that these proposals unfairly and unnecessarily distort the market and favor AI developers. These proposals will damage an important part of the UK economy, as the UK is the world's third-largest recorded music market and the world's second-largest exporter of recorded music.
