Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to make its presence felt in the music industry, changing the way songs are created, produced and distributed.
While some musicians see AI as a tool that can help speed up certain parts of the creative process, others remain concerned about what it means for originality, ownership and the value of human creativity.
The conversation has been especially heated in South Africa, where artists such as Nanette and Filah Lah Lah have publicly spoken out against the growing use of AI in music.
Nanette previously argued that AI is no substitute for human creativity, while Filah Lah Lah questioned whether musicians are being told their years of dedication and craft are being reduced to something that can be replicated by technology.
