Sting says musicians face a battle to defend their work against the rise of songs written by artificial intelligence. He told the BBC: "The building blocks of music belong to us, to human beings. That's going to be a battle we all have to fight in the next couple of years: Defending our human capital against AI." His comments come after a number of songs have used artificial intelligence to "clone" famous artists' vocals. "It's similar to the way I watch a movie with CGI. It doesn't impress me at all," Sting said. "I get immediately bored when I see a computer-generated image. I imagine I will feel the same way about AI making music. Maybe for electronic dance music, it works. But for songs, you know, expressing emotions, I don't think I will be moved by it."
