Despite it catching on like wildfire and now being considered for Grammy Awards recognition, AI-generated music continues to be met with resistance. James Blake is the latest musician to rejected AI-generated works in his likeness.
Today (December 21), the “Like The End” musician was brutally honest with a fan. On X (formerly Twitter), a James Blake supporter tagged the recording artist in a tribute made with AI-generated music in his likeness. Unfortunately, the now-deleted songs did not earn a stamp of approval from Blake. “Hate all of them 🔥🔥🔥,” he wrote.
Typically, entertainers would be shunned for emotionally violating a fan in this way. But, users online overwhelmingly threw their support behind Blake’s response.
“Now, why would he do this; we all know how much you hate AI,” wrote one user.
