[Frank Lucassen]

I fully agree with Ioan. Let stay focussed on our project goals. That already hard enough.

Dear all,

This AI debate seems to be far removed from the core of our project. The copyright vs AI debates concern large language models and that is not what this project is working on.

Several partners to this project have outspoken positions on this topic. And those do not always align. I would therefore advise to not have the Copyright vs AI debate become part of this project.

The only place AI has in the Music360* project is its ability to improve data management. Analysis and recommendations on that are welcome. Other aspects of AI might interest us, but don’t need to be imported in this project.

Kind regards,
ioan

But gen-AI generates similar songs, where the kind of similarity is determined by the algorithm and the prompt. That is not what a person does.
