Victoria Monét AI-artist Xania Monet
You don’t need to be a tech expert to notice how AI is getting more and more uncanny valley each day. Victoria Monét, however, has had to confront this fact personally when the AI artist Xania Monet emerged earlier this year. In an interview with Vanity Fair, Monét revealed that she’s suspected the artist was created using her name and likeness. “It’s hard to comprehend that, within a prompt, my name was not used for this artist to capitalize on,” she told Vanity Fair. “I don’t support that. I don’t think that’s fair. When that name starts to ring bells in a certain way, it can easily be mixed up with my brand. It’s not ideal.”
If you missed it, Xania Monet debuted on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay chart, marking the “first known instance of an AI-based act to earn a spot on a Billboard radio chart,” according to the platform.
