SZA has criticized Diplo and AI music platform Suno, accusing them of exploiting Black artists by training AI on their work without proper respect or protection. 😤🎵
**The Allegations:**
On an Instagram burner account, SZA reportedly wrote: *”Ionno who needs to hear this but diplo has equity in suno and is actively attempting to train it on the best and brightest black minds of writers and producers”* [citation:1]. She also pointed out the disparity, writing: *”We make up 13% of the American population yet influence the world w our sound and perspective. I AINT HEARD A WHITE AI SONG YET… We have no protection in legislature medical or creative. The easiest to steal from”* [citation:7].
**The Discovery:**
SZA also discovered that 238 of her songs — including unreleased tracks — had been used in AI training datasets without her permission [citation:2]. She responded strongly: *”If you’re a musician and you support this degenerate shit? You’re disgusting and there’s NOTHING YOU COULD EVER SAY TO ME TO MAKE THIS OKAY. I hope u have the life u deserve”* [citation:2].
**The Background:**
SZA has been a vocal critic of AI for years, including on her 2022 song “Ghost in the Machine” from the album *SOS*: *”Let’s talk about AI, robot got more heart than I”* [citation:8]. She has also criticized AI’s environmental impact, pointing to the harm it causes Black and Brown communities [citation:5].
Diplo has not publicly responded to SZA’s allegations at press time [citation:1].
