We need a strong union that fights for us with an army of lawyers, we must end piracy, "streaming", and unfettered AI. The Union of New Musicians must control and defend our own music sales and our own streaming and our own AI, trained only on us, giving us shareable songwriting credits and the ability to hook up idea people with technical musicians. Music by the People is very important to counterbalance corporate "influencers". Now is the time to shift from legacy Hollywood musicians to us, the People.

Free speech, innovation, and fairness are the hallmarks of a Trump Government. Coincidentally AI technology has become the catalyst for hundreds of thousands of music makers to realise their dreams. The music corporations have been in the hands of the few and a tightly held closed shop. With the aid of AI, budding songwriters young and old are able to realise their dreams of making music. It wouldn't surprise me if DOGE looks upon AI music makers and simplifies and protects rights ownership.

[@gigaha]

I hope you’re right that he would favor artist protection - but I think the takeaway of this analysis is that Trump has signaled that he will de-regulate industries, to include tech companies, suggesting that he would lean towards allowing AI companies to train their tech on copywritten music as “fair use.” His alignment with Musk further suggests this, as Musk is adamantly opposed to regulation and works in the tech industry himself.

[@RoryElis]

Never forget new musicians, culture belongs to you. You are the content! You deserve to be organized & paid. You no longer need giant corporations. We can have our own Union only Streaming, Our own Union only MP3 online store & our own unionized AI, trained exclusively on our union members, who are paid fairly for every AI hit generated. We will cover each other's songs, we will write together and we will use our own studio musicians and we will shift away from Hollywood & giant Corporations.

[@GospelProgressionsUniversity]

It seems people often believe that “human creativity” is a rare, pure essence, completely untouched by external influences, modern or otherwise a wholly original and unfiltered form of personal expression. AI, like other tools, builds upon what creators have always done: copy, iterate, and adapt. However, AI does this on an unprecedented scale, making creative processes like music creation more accessible and democratized. In the U.S., a capitalist society, rarity, whether natural or artificially created often drives value. Before Gutenberg’s printing press, scribes were paid significant sums for their labor because they couldn’t produce books on a large scale, making books rare and expensive. After the printing press revolutionized production, books became far more affordable and accessible. Today, they can often be resold for pennies on the dollar at used book sales without raising an eyebrow. Interestingly, some of the earliest mass-printed materials, after religious texts like the Bible, included popular genres such as romance, satire, and even erotic literature. This influx of printed works did not diminish creativity; instead, it laid the groundwork for the development of the many great fictional works we celebrate today.

[@SanderEvers]

@@KDMack-qv4wv Humans can also not create things out of thin air. Everything you do was once learned to you, and you need materials to do so. You use a neural network (your brain) to combine those to make something new. An AI / LLM does basically the same thing on a digital level. This is why AI will never be able to replace all humans. Because AI can't learn from AI. AI can learn from the Human input to AI and the result of that. But AI can't create the input. (See it as the chicken and the egg issue) However AIs are created by (large) companies so - at least right now - they are easy targets for copyright legislation. But to me this is very similar for human. For example if you whistle / hum a song you heard on the radio. That's basically a copyright infringement. But then there is something like fair use, which would protect you. AI does basically the same thing here, but is not protected under fair use. Which is why Trump is going to move on to changing copyright legislation that (at least to some degree) it does. And at least to me, that seems fair. Because if you forbid AI using copyrighted material, you basically only can train AI on "public domain" material, basically destroying innovation.

Interesting idea. If, when you generate an AI song or product, the platform also generated a unique identifier citing its references, we would add a level of transparency to the technology where we could objectively understand how it made its choices. If it further assigned a % to each citation as to the strength of its influence on the final product, you could potentially assign royalty %s.

[@Nemion]

Maybe Spotify can sell AI Gen subscriptions, using their library as the training source, and distributing some of the revenue to every artist who has opted their works in to be part of the training data.

[@midnightwind8067]

If you use loops and samples, how can you complain if a computer does fake music better than you? And -we should be told if something is AI created so we can choose to partake or avoid AI crap. Some will love it and some will not. Our only hope is to be the one the audience chooses. So many copy paste producers will be eliminated. They will not have the creative ability to keep up. Answer? Get better. Don’t love it enough to struggle? Ok. But no one owes you a listen. Consider the last time you sat down and put on a pop tune from ten years ago. Now. Consider the fact that I hear Dream On by Aerosmith coming from little fart can cars quite often. That song is from 1973. Learn to play learn to write and make the music that matters. You cannot defeat corporate greed or technological advancement. But you can build your own success. If you have what it takes.

[@drewstephenson]

In any instances that you could have gotten royalties from a human then the same law should apply to Ai.

Is that not one of the ways that we learn our instruments and craft? We are even encouraged to "rip-off" their licks, tone, and style. 2. Steve Morse (guitar virtuoso for those who don't know), release an instrumental album called Major Impacts. All the music was original but every song was written in the style of some of his influences, like The Who and Genesis and so on. His music but sounding like the different bands or artists.

Personally, I feel that trademark and patent law can be linked together to protect artists - but really only if we automate licensing and payments such that it is impossible to break the law - payments just get automated. Do we want that? I leave it up the public, I can go either way - allow fair use or tighten things up so that machine learning computers work for musicians, not the other way around. We give people the benefit of the doubt they do not break the rules on purpose, so the focus of upgrading the Library of Congress is far more important than haggling the details. We need US Library of Congress 2.0. Contract some of the functions to existing third parties perhaps, but let us make it easier and profitable to make music. I can trade mark my band name, or even my name, link it to a list of recordings and voila, I can ask a jury, do you think AI trained itself on my stuff? Or do we want, ha, caught you, I file with the copyright office some of or a portion of your AI revenue for that song, no matter how it was used, automatically gets redirected to me and if you have a problem with that, we go to arbitration? I don't think everyone wants to go out of business over one law suit, the use of AI requires we simplify the entire process?

Yes, this is definitely something to be majorly concerned about. I can understand why there are those who think that it's important to loosen restrictions for AI development, but I think that it's important to distinguish between, the kind of AI, which is important to have, primarily because it can solve serious problems, and make our lives significantly better, Vs. something like generative AI art/music. There was nothing wrong with the way things were before generative AI art/music, came about, and creating generative AI art/music means taking away artistic opportunity from human composers, and handing it over to machines, which is far worse than just copyright infringement. And the fact that tech companies are focusing their investments in art/music, is perhaps serving as a rabbit hole, preventing them from creating things which can solve serious problems, and benefit humanity, and ultimately benefit themselves as well.

But as other comments have already pointed out, nobody knows what he will do and this article is all speculation.

I imagine Donald Trump would have a problem with someone used his name and his image to do something away from him. His copyright would be just as invalid. Is what you're saying, so what about that someone doing an AI? Of Donald Trump and using his name to make money. I'm sure he would be a little choked.

>How Will Donald Trump's Election Win Impact The Music Industry? I suspect it will make lawyers such as yourself richer. 🤭

If’s and mights coulds. Maybe’s etc. Haters form on the left. Repeat after me. If wishes were horses beggars would ride. If AI can recreate your music, write better music.

It’s not copyright infringement, it’s all INTERPOLATION baby! 😂

This AI stuff is all so sad, Music is art, art is the expression of the human heart, mind and soul, we as humans appreciate art as it is an extension of the human soul, that's what makes it art, I write, reord, mix and master all my own stuff, I do all of the vocals and all instruments myself with no use of pitch correction or auto tune and I have worked my ass off mastering my craft which is another imprtant aspect as we see the work that artists put in and sometimes it's like 'wow, I can't believe the persistence and focus and talent required to create this' etc and now y'all telling me that AI has anything to do with art? DO THE WORK, LEARN YOUR CRAFT, YOU LAZY JERKS, TRY CRETING SOMETHING YOURSELF AND YOU"LL SEE HOW DIFFERENT IT FEELS TO DO THE WORK AND HAVE THE DEDICATION, I actually can't believe this is even being entertained, AI is not art and these people are making it so hard for true artists to be seen and appreciated, peace out friends ✌

your TDS will not make music better

[@AdamIverson]

I don't know why you guys are defending big, bully record label companies on copyright that have been abusive on copyright power for profit. What, they owned a concept called "Music" and only they can own it and have a monopoly over it? There are only so many unique idea in art that we start to run out and many artists are facing copyright infringement lawsuit even on original music just because this melody sounded slightly similar. I really despise UMG (Universal Music Group) especially, nevermind copyright infringement on AI, they are known to send a copyright strike on KZbin that was used as fair use including education, like fair use doesn't exist. AI is what allows us to take back power, no need to feed this multi-billion dollars greedy corporation. I am looking forward to ease of AI regulation, that really inhibits the innovation, we need AI that's accessible to everyone, not just reserving to the very top elite.

Oh so you can blatantly copy and mass produce other people's creations and they're supposed to be okay with that? 😂 such a laughable thing when you really think about it. Trend riders wanna act like they have talent by outsourcing it in the most cheap and disgusting way and gaslight you into thinking it's okay 😂

Trump’s policies will always favour large US corporations over individuals. If your musical instruments or equipment are imported, they will be taxed heavily through tariffs. The CARES Act amplified systemic vulnerabilities of individual musicians and venues in times of crisis. While the relief measures helped some, the lack of a tailored approach underscored the need for future programs designed specifically for the arts and entertainment sector. Initiatives like the Save Our Stages Act (later incorporated into the December 2020 relief package) addressed some of these gaps but came too late for many.

Worse that can happen: economy will be much much better under Trump (again). That alone will help artists and producers make more money. Everyone will have more extra money to spend on merch, concert tickets, etc.
