Celine Dion warns fans against fake Al generated songs
Canadian singer Celine Dion has warned about Al generated songs that are circulating on the internet.
She stated in an Instagram post on Saturday that "They have discovered that unapproved, artificial intelligence-generated music that allegedly features Celine Dion’s name, likeness, and musical performances is presently making the rounds on the internet and through different DSPs,”
The songs on these recordings are not from her official discography, and they are fraudulent and unapproved.
Even though Dion doesn’t mention any specific recordings, the music industry is becoming more and more divided over the use of AI.
Over 200 musicians, including Billie Eilish, Kacey Musgraves, J Balvin, Ja Rule, Jon Bon Jovi, the Jonas Brothers, Katy Perry, and Miranda Lambert, signed an open letter in April 2024, denouncing the dangers posed by artificial intelligence in the music business.
The letter, which was coordinated by the non-profit Artist Rights Alliance, has urged digital music services, platforms, technology firms, and AI developers to “stop using artificial intelligence to violate and diminish the rights of human artists.”
Along with “irresponsible uses of AI,” such as utilising AI sound to reduce royalties to artists and using musical compositions by AI developers without permission to train and create AI copycats, it draws attention to AI concerns like deepfakes and voice cloning.
During the opening ceremony, in July 2024,while standing on a platform on the Eiffel Tower, Celine Dion triumphantly returned to the stage at the Paris Olympics, performing the Edith Piaf classic “Hymne à l’Amour”
She disclosed that she was receiving “athletic, physical, and vocal therapy” five days a week in December 2022.
According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, Dion, 56, recently made a comeback to the spotlight after being forced to take a hiatus due to her rare neurological condition, Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS), which is characterised by muscle rigidity and spasms as well as heightened sensitivity to stimuli like sound, lights, and emotional distress.
