About this episode

This episode discusses how artists are adapting to the rise of AI in the music industry, particularly in light of new features from streaming platforms like Spotify.

Last month, the streaming platform Spotify added a new feature that allows users to generate their own AI remixes. With no signs of AI slowing down in the music industry, we’re revisiting this episode about the labor implications, and how human artists are adapting.
