Composer Max Richter says human composers should be paid when AI systems use their work to generate music. He made the case in an interview with Mishal Husain for Bloomberg.
Why it mattersRichter also said AI systems were built on data that was stolen. That is his characterisation, not a legal finding, but it puts a familiar question plainly: who should benefit when a model learns from creative work? The interview adds a composer’s perspective to the debate over AI training and copyright.
Discuss: Should AI developers need permission and payment to train on music, or is there a fairer way to share the value?
