Last month, a band called The Velvet Sundown surged in popularity on Spotify<\/a> with its \u201870s inflected rock and almost too-surreal publicity photos. <\/p>\n

Yeah, it was all generated by AI. <\/p>\n

Synthetic music is getting better and better<\/a>, leaving a lot of human artists concerned that their original work could be used to feed the machines that might take their jobs.<\/p>\n

Now some researchers are fighting back with a tool called MusicShield.<\/p>\n

It basically inserts digital artifacts into original songs. They’re imperceptible to humans, but prevent AI bots from training on or editing these works. <\/p>\n

Jian Liu is an associate professor at the University of Georgia and he’s currently working to launch a beta version of MusicShield in September. Liu spoke to \u201cMarketplace Tech\u201d about his work. <\/p>\n
