There is an extremely weird juxtaposition between the idea of watermarking the outputs so AI-generated samples can be detected if they make up even part of a song (which is arguably considerable as fair use of even copyrighted material if only a single bar is sampled), and the statement: > Within the experiment, a limited set of creators will be able to use Dream Track for producing a unique soundtrack with the AI-generated voice and musical style of artists including Alec Benjamin, Charlie Puth, Charli XCX, Demi Lovato, John Legend, Sia, T-Pain, Troye Sivan, and Papoose*. So... we're watching you and we'll know if you so much as sample one bar to create something of your own. But our preferred creators are having so much fun using AI exclusively to make the entire composition, directly ripping off the personal style of these artists who said it's OK! I also found it hilarious that they claim the idea of embedding a watermark in the audio by adding the image to the 2d spectrogram is a "novel method ... unlike anything that exists today, especially in the context of audio." Considering Aphex Twin did it in 1999... * Apparently it was removed from the game, and his Wikipedia doesn't even mention it, but, yes, Papoose, of the "You just mad cuz I'm stylin' on ya!" track from GTA IV.
