Artificial intelligence is the latest frontier in technology which has found its way into different sectors including the entertainment industry where it's been used to mimic the voice of different artists.
In another interesting event in the intersection of AI and Music, the AI-generated song 'Heart On My Sleeve' by Canadian megastars Drake and The Weeknd has been submitted for The Grammys.
This was revealed by multiple platforms on Tuesday 7, 2023 in a news that has reignited the conversation about the use of AI in music.
The song which mimics the voices of the platinum-selling artists was submitted for consideration in the best rap song and song of the year categories. Notably, both categories are awarded to the songwriter, not the performer, of a track.
According to Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. in an interview with The New York Times stated that the song is "absolutely eligible because it was written by a human.”
The ghostwriter penned the lyrics before deploying AI to mimic the voices of Drake and The Weeknd to create the track that went viral.
