Artists take music off Spotify to boycott AI

Several Australian artists, including King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard, Deerhoof and Leah Senior, have removed their work from the global streaming platform.

The removal of their music from Spotify comes after it was revealed in June that Spotify's chief executive, Daniel Ek, led a billion-dollar investment into Helsing, a German military technology company that specialises in developing artificial intelligence systems.

In October, Spotify took down a song called I Run by Haven, which went viral on TikTok after it was allegedly made with artificial intelligence using a "clone" of British singer Jorja Smith's vocals.

Smith's record label FAMM said it wanted a share of the royalties from the song as it believed the track was made with AI trained on her work, and is seeking compensation, BBC reported.

'No music for genocide'

Although many artists still have their music on streaming platforms, including Apple Music and Spotify, more than 1,000 artists have geo-blocked their music so it cannot be streamed in Israel.

Some of the artists include: Lorde, Paramore, Clairo, and Amyl and The Sniffers.

Despite a fragile ceasefire currently in place, No Music for Genocide organisers said they are continuing the boycott amidst additional air strikes in Gaza, NPR reported.
