Recording Academy, the governing body behind the annual music award show The Grammys, have recently introduced a new clause that allows for artists and bands to have their AI songs nominated for an award, but if at least one living person contributed to the work.

Variety cited the new guidance for artists who utilize AI to create songs, which are as follows:

The GRAMMY Award recognizes creative excellence. Only human creators are eligible to be submitted for consideration for, nominated for, or win a GRAMMY Award.

A work that contains no human authorship is not eligible in any Categories. A work that features elements of A.I. material (i.e., material generated by the use of artificial intelligence technology) is eligible in applicable Categories; however:

(1) the human authorship component of the work submitted must be meaningful and more than de minimis;

(2) such human authorship component must be relevant to the Category in which such work is entered (e.g., if the work is submitted in a songwriting Category, there must be meaningful and more than de minimis human authorship in respect of the music and/or lyrics; if the work is submitted in a performance Category, there must be meaningful and more than de minimis human authorship in respect of the performance);

and (3) the author(s) of any A.I. material incorporated into the work are not eligible to be nominees or GRAMMY recipients insofar as their contribution to the portion of the work that consists of such A.I material is concerned. De minimis is defined as lacking significance or importance; so minor as to merit disregard.

This new change in policy comes shortly after Paul McCartney revealed that The Beatles will release one final official tune that used AI to bring back John Lennon’s voice.

Furthermore, Meta also announced the release of a new AI music generator, that allows users to create entire songs in just a few clicks, called MusicGen.


AUTHOR COMMENTARY

Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.

Ecclesiastes 7:29

Nice to see man continuing to “innovate” by stripping away every creative element we have left.

While the music presented at The Grammy’s is hot garbage, I mention this because because it again shows the spread of the AI plague, and how no one is trying to remedy it, it seems.


[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
