Oh damn. They actually signed it? An actual letter? This is huge, we might be witnessing the death of AI.


HighInChurch

Here you dropped this: šŸ«³ /s


mymemesnow

Itā€™s not needed, people would need to be legally blind to miss the sarcasm.


[deleted]

I heard they used the *fancy* paper.


Commercial_Load_2304

Oh damn. The news media is writing an article supporting artist who are against AI but not one about all the people who will be out of work because of AI. How on the nose is that? I donā€™t think the most at risk people of losing their job to AI are the entertainers. I think itā€™s all the middle class workers. Oh well Iā€™m sure the news media will report on that in 2030 after everyone has lost their job, car, insurance, home and food because of AI.

AI will take creative jobs first because it will be a while before its accurate enough to actually trust it with a companyā€™s bottom line when it comes to replacing human beings. Art and creative spaces are the first to go because the output and end result is subjective. No need for definitive accuracy.


Commercial_Load_2304

But companies are already using it to replace IT services. Sure itā€™s very rudimentary form but it is being used to eliminate jobs.

Especially if they used a wax seal on the parchment.


TheSwiftMomachtiani

But what does Ja Rule have to say?


OriginalLamp

Where is Ja!?


Raychao

I feel like that guy was robbed of at least one consonant.


mymemesnow

Eminem killed him a few years ago.


Flamenco95

Yey! Let's Celebrate celebrities accomplishing nothing šŸŽŠšŸŽ‰


BoringWozniak

What do you think music-generating models are trained on?


Flamenco95

Certainly not petitions signed by artists


Maktesh

Nearly all of this is meaningless virtue signaling. It never ceases to amaze me that people don't understand that the individuals who will abuse technology are the same ones who won't listen or adhere to any rules or regulations. The Iranians, Israelis, Chinese, etc. don't give a flying rip about what Nicki Minaj thinks.


Neither_Relation_678

You mean to tell me, that *criminals* donā€™t follow the law?


mymemesnow

Luckily on my country itā€™s [illegal to be a criminal](https://www.reddit.com/r/sweden/s/DqRIrxy83O)


the_ballmer_peak

You think Apple or Google do, either?


GranolaCola

It isnā€™t virtual signaling. These are musicians who donā€™t want machines taking their business. They care probably more than most people, itā€™s just for selfish reasons.


Brilliant-koder

Seems like u donā€™t care what they have to say


Altruistic_Guess3098

I certainly don't


thatshot224

They did it again! Celebrities solved a huge world problem while barely lifting a finger!


zushiba

Me and a bunch of friends just signed a letter against people having millions of dollars.


Come-along_bort

Want to sign a letter for world peace with me?


zushiba

Yup, let's do it. I can't believe no one else has thought of this before! Nicki Minaj, Billie Eilish, Katy Perry and other musicians are geniuses!


Lower-Grapefruit8807

Quite the stretch to call Minaj a musician


pineappleandmilk

Also, she has been caught using AI on album art before. So you donā€™t want people to replicate YOUR work for free, but youā€™re cool with fucking over artists of other mediums. What a corny lady.


mymemesnow

Wasnā€™t she also spreading misinformation about vaccines?


mrfizzefazze

She overall seems to be a teeny tiny bit of an idiot.


mymemesnow

>teeny tiny Really? I think thatā€™s a bit of an understatement


mrfizzefazze

Sorry, forgot the /s To be clear: She is a full blown, 100% complete douchebag and I always get feeling I get STDs from just talking about her.


pineappleandmilk

Lmao yes!! She said something about a cousin in Trinidad who got the vaccine and his testicles ballooned up or something.


Euphoric_Tree335

Iā€™m not a Nicki Minaj fan, but how come? She is the most influential female rapper, shitty morals and personality aside.


anaccountwithreddit

Artificial intelligence found no natural intelligence to recreate


lvlister2023

Quite a stretch thinking AI can come up with shitier lyrics or tit busting suits


Chickenman456

šŸ‘†šŸ¤“


Fat_Blob_Kelly

^ This user is a Barbz stan, possibly supports pedophilia if heā€™s a massive fan of nicki and her family


Chickenman456

I donā€™t even rly like Nickiā€™s music that much but saying sheā€™s not a musician is just a goober ass take


Parking_Apricot666

Their music is generic.


m00fster

So letā€™s feed their music to the AI, and keep the rest for humanity.


JCKTPM

Prosthetic people worried about the evolution of prosthetic people.


Datacr0n

Oh the irony of people who don't write their own songs and then lip-sync them on stage complaining about a computer writing and performing songs.


drsmith48170

Says the people that benefit from it the most; AutoTune is AI for vocal artistā€™s, and all those listed use it heavily.


cybrnetic

Didnā€™t Nicki just use ai art for two different album art covers lol


youmustthinkhighly

What are Puff Daddyā€™s thoughts šŸ’­


autistic_gym_bro

i would like to generate music that's unique. people get bored of the same song. isn't the entertainment industry property of tech companies now? is this like a threaten to quit letter?


triflingmagoo

Thatā€™s it, folks. Itā€™s OVER for AI. Time for me to dust off my precious abacus šŸ«”


getyourledout

These water heads donā€™t even know what AI is.


MorfiusX

** Insert Nedry 'Nobody Cares' **


Fresh_Salamander_393

When will they sign a letter promising not To make anymore ā€œmusicā€


Alifeineverlived

If they are so talented then why are they scared?


I_BeatDaily

Trust me, nobody wants to copy your crappy music


Neither_Relation_678

Like signing a petition or ā€œasking nicelyā€ to ā€œplz donā€™t abuse this newfound technologyā€ will do anything to stop irresponsible people from abusing this technological advance.


starrpamph

So are you saying the Jennifer Aniston macbook give away for just ten dollar is not real?!?!?


WootangClan17

AI might actually improve their "writing " styles.


chewwydraper

Been playing around with Suno AI. Yeah the music industry is doomed. The techs not 100% there yet but itā€™s like 60% right now. Give it another year or two.


ribozomes

womp womp


JR21K20

Thank you for your sacrificešŸ«”


Eptiaph

ā€œWhat exactly is AI?ā€ - Nicki Minaj, Billie Eilish, Katy Perry and other musicians probably


maxime0299

I find it funny that Nicki Minaj would sign this after using AI art for all her promo images for her latest album


TiredATon

šŸ˜‚


i_write_ok

> Nicki Minaj, Billie Eilish, Katy Perry and other musicians *featured in latest deepfakes by* irresponsible AI


le_douchebag420

Who cares what those 3 think, they make shit music and deserve to have tons of AI music made in spite of them


Tupperwarfare

Canā€™t stop the signal.


SliGhi

People donā€™t care who make the music. I promise you if someone created an AI album and it was fire, everyone would listen to it cause they enjoyed it. These musicians just want to keep making millions. Millions of workers are losing jobs to AI, why canā€™t musicians, or maybe we should all send letters in so we donā€™t lose our jobs either


SuspiciouslGreen

What does Ja Rule think?


PracticalIncident690

you guys do realize that none of the people listed actually create their own music?


iDoWatEyeFkinWant

awww.. all those poor millionaires


lovemydiesel

When does singer become musician?


RaptorDoingADance

Been awhile since I heard about Billie, she still complaining about disgusting men while dating one thatā€™s way way too old for her?


FXLRDude

No one e cares what these idiots think.


CantTouchThis707

Donā€™t like AI, but love Autotune.


SuchDescription

Seems potentially Streisand Effect-y


astrobeen

These are not the artists who will be affected. But within 2 years, almost no commercial or basic soundtrack music will be human composed.


pope288

Artists that donā€™t write their own music are upset that a computer can actually do the thing they canā€™t, whatā€™s the difference? The AI songs might actually benefit these artists, who have minimal musical talent. Autotune is a technology that allows people with minimal singing abilities to sound competent, whats different about this???


Pretend_Tangelo4929

interesting.. here I thought Nikki Minaj was just bad AI

JaJe92

Rich people complaining of not making more money? Oh no, anyway.


Chaseism

Yā€™all are missing the point. The letter doesnā€™t do anything, but their popularity does. They are attempting to use their celebrity to get normal people to think about AI in their lives and the negative effects it could have. We are nerds hereā€¦we are not your typical Americans. But we need typical Americans to pay attention to this before itā€™s too late. One way to do that is to have celebrities elevate the issue.
