The synergy of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain has the potential to revolutionize the music industry by increasing the innovative possibilities of artists while maintaining transparency and a fair distribution of income among creators.

Artificial intelligence is increasingly used as a tool to create novel songs or imitate existing musical content. Therefore, distinguishing human-made music from AI-generated content is becoming increasingly challenging.

Moreover, AI-based content is often trained on existing content, usually without the knowledge or consent of its original creators, which creates a number of ethical and legal issues for which there are currently no clear solutions given the rapid development of technology.

“Because of how generative AI works, you can’t really say what went into it and what effect it has,” Hanna Kahlert, an analyst at MIDia Research, told Cointelegraph.

“The problems this creates are disinformation and fake news, as well as a lack of trust in what you see online,” she said.

According to Kahlert, blockchain technology can solve these problems by tracking the origins of specific music content, ensuring that copyrights are respected and artists are fairly compensated.

Moreover, blockchain technology can make the relationship between artists and fans more direct, bypassing intermediaries like record labels and centralized streaming services like Spotify.
