Remember that anything "created" by an AI cannot be copyrighted, so the fact that there's a label representing them is concerning... and possibly actionable

Not Actionable… you can sell things that don’t have copyright it just means anyone can sell it, you could theoretically rip the song straight from the internet and resell it on the same platform right next to them (unless any human creativity is involved then that has copyright )

(unless any human creativity is involved then that has copyright )

This is the part people usually forget when they spout "it can't be copyrighted." If a human edits the output in some capacity then that is still copyrighted. It's not really the gotcha a lot of people seem to think it is.

And that edit can be as minute as changing a single bit of data that is imperceptible to the human ear. As long as a human being has put input into it, they’ve edited it, and there’s copyright that can be protected.

Even if they ran a local model to make the music?

Why would what computer the model runs on make even a sliver of difference?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I was implying the training data would be local or user created. Not just using music from the internet.
