Listen NEW YORK - Several major music industry organisations have unveiled a labelling system for content created with generative artificial intelligence that they would like to see widely adopted.
The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) announced the voluntary labels alongside six other groups including the Grammys on July 10.
“Fans want to know whether and how generative AI has been used,” the chief executives of IFPI and RIAA said in a prepared statement.
