    Was the training data ethically sourced (for music generation)?

    How do music creators feel about their work potentially being regenerated and used in other’s works?

        Getting permission to copy each music work for use in training data may be ethically important while the creators are dependant on income from that work to survive, or just as a social contract.

          you are saying this like the music indistry weren’t about resampling/remixing/rethinking existing songs/melodies/phrases already. it always was. and that’s fine! people always gets down to the source if they hear something fancy.

            I can’t image people always get to the source, my understanding is most music does not have attribution of significant portions copied.
