In the music industry, the use of artificial intelligence is rekindling fears that algorithms will replace artists. This has prompted the Grammy Awards to take a stand ahead of its next edition.
The Recording Academy, the professional organization that presents these famous music awards each year, recently updated the rules of eligibility for the Grammys in the aim of protecting human creation. The eligibility criteria now stipulate that only flesh-and-blood artists can compete for one of these awards. According to the new rules, "a work that contains no human authorship is not eligible in any categories" of the Grammy Awards.
