Sydney Uni has joined a movement for founding set of principles relating to AI and music creation.

Fast stats/info:

• 25% of music producers are using AI (music business worldwide)

• 20% of independent artists have used AI music tools (Music Ally)

• YouTube Music (formerly Google Music) are adding an AI DJ

Sydney University has joined a 50-strong coalition of supporters for a founding set of principles which outline the responsible use of AI in music creation.

The founding document for these principles came back in March from two of the biggest companies in global music – Audio equipment manufacturer, Roland and label, Universal Music group

The press release when this was launched labelled the collaboration between Roland and Universal “a strategic relationship in support of music artists and creators worldwide”

They describe the campaign as “ a series of clarifying statements relating to the responsible use of AI in music creation, and will advocate their adoption across the music industry and creative community. The principles highlight the opportunity for innovation with AI in music production, composition, and songwriting while underscoring the need for transparency, equity, and community involvement.”

The seven core principles, or “clarifying statements,” are:

1. We believe music is central to humanity.
2. We believe humanity and music are inseparable.
3. We believe that technology has long supported human artistic expression, and applied sustainably, AI will amplify human creativity.
4. We believe that human-created works must be respected and protected.
5. We believe that transparency is essential to responsible and trustworthy AI.
6. We believe the perspectives of music artists, songwriters, and other creators must be sought after and respected.
7. We are proud to help bring music to life.
