The fight against the use of AI in music goes on. Australia's recording industry (ARIA) has banned songs that are "wholly" created with AI from the official music charts. There is controversy over an AI version of a Madonna hit. The cover version used AI technology. It spent 16 weeks in the top 20. It also made music lovers angry. ARIA said that "wholly AI-generated" music will be banned from the charts, but "AI-assisted" music is OK.
ARIA said the industry must protect artists' livelihoods. It said AI can be used, but not if it excludes human creativity. It said the new rules were to "promote the human nature of artistry". The artist who created the Madonna cover said he used AI on the song. He saw no problem with using AI as a tool in creating music. He also said the new rules were "a great move". He wrote: "I understand that AI in music isn't for everyone and that's fine."
