15: Fair Trade Program from LANDR
The space of AI and music is heating up: A couple of labels sued Suno and Udio with the argument that the platforms are infringing copyrights of their artists. The tech companies responded so far with the argument that all their practice is based on "fair use". No solution on the horizon yet. But why create problems when you also can avoid them? A couple of weeks ago LANDR announced its "Fair Trade Program". Musicians can opt-in to their artificial intelligence. Once the AI is ready they will get paid for their participation. Sounds good? Let's have a deeper look into that! I talked with Frédérick Ranger from LANDR for the new episode.
