Exactly. The flaw is in the streaming service. They say “upload your music and make money” while skimming the lions share of the profits. But if they use tools that are openly available to all, i.e. generative AI (which uses copyrighted works for it generational algorithms) AND the Streaming service systems themselves, somehow this user is at fault because they don’t like the way he did it and the amount he uploaded. It seems to me it’s a problem with the system and not the user.
I think you're missing the key part of the problem. It isn't the AI that's the issue.
The problem is that he was being paid for how many listeners his AI songs got. But he used bots to "listen" to the songs. Nobody actually listened to his AI music.
The flaw in the system was that they couldn't detect his bots. (And the bots are not AI)
If money is people ( citizens united ish ) , Then playing this music 9ver speakers to your dollar bills would legally be a listen?
