Yes - you read that right!

With broad support from IFPI, RIAA, A2IM, WIN, IMPALA, The Grammys,SAG-AFTRA & Human Artistry Campaign…

In a nutshell, per the RIAA website:

“Fans want to know whether and how generative AI has been used in the music to which they listen. Given how important human artistry and authenticity is to music lovers all over the world, these labels will provide an immediately understandable and easily scalable approach to transparency. We acknowledge the many ways AI is being used creatively, so we expect to offer fans additional information as adoption of generative AI labeling grows and technology evolves,” said Vikki Oakley, IFPI CEO and Mitch Glazier, RIAA Chairman & CEO in a joint statement.

So now parents will change their tune from “You cannot listen to that - it’s ADULT RATED!!” To something more like…

“You cannot listen to that - it was MADE BY MACHINES!!!”

It’s a Brave New World, I suppose…!
