Reporter Zhang Jiaxin from our newspaper
In April 1970, the Beatles disbanded and millions of fans were heartbroken. More than 50 years later, artificial intelligence (AI) is reviving "lost memories", re creating and re imagining the performance of the Beatles.
AI sound simulation is so realistic, which has also triggered a series of ethical and legal issues, and even led to the emergence of Phone fraud. According to the InsiderGuides website in Australia, the latest report shows that Australians lost a record $3.1 billion due to fraud in 2022.
Voice cloning is easily exploited by scammers
In Phone fraud, the fraudster uses AI software to scan voice records and copy them, with an accuracy rate of 99%. They can extract clips from social media videos and other uploaded audio, input them into AI software, reproduce sounds, and say different phrases or sentences.
Dip Ruan Tanyong, associate professor of the School of Electrical and Data Engineering, University of Technology Sydney, Australia, said that AI model can reconstruct relatively short speech fragments and string fragments into coherent sentences. Some models and algorithms can synthesize a fairly high-quality cloned sound in just one minute or even less.
Time magazine reported that a few months ago, a family in Arizona thought they had received a kidnapping call, and the sound on the phone sounded exactly like that of their loved ones. They found out that it was a scam entirely created by AI. The emergence of more and more scams has raised concerns that AI may become a technology that threatens people, and this technology is easy to obtain.
AI turns ordinary people into singers
AI sound cloning has also expanded to the music field, where people use this technology to create songs that are identical to the voices of celebrities. Recently, a creator named "DaeLims" released several songs created using AI on social media.
"It sounds like crying! It's so beautiful!" A listener commented under the song "New" that this song was Paul McCartney's 2013 single, which was re produced with the help of AI, and was "sung" by John Lennon, a friend of McCartney who died in 1980.
A similar example is that in April this year, foreign netizen "Ghostwriter 977" trained AI with the voices of famous rapper Drake and R&B singer TheWeekend, imitating their music style to generate a "choir" song "Heart on My Sleeve". Once released, this song went viral on social media.
We have truly entered a new era, "a listener responded in a comment," and we cannot even distinguish between what is legal and what is fake
Patricia Alessandroni, a composer and assistant professor of the Music and Acoustics Computer Research Center of Stanford University, said that a large number of AI tracks recently represent the maturity of a technology that has been developing exponentially, but has been largely ignored by the public in the past decade. This means that people can now train AI in any aspect, but "we cannot expect it to replace the rich history of human art and culture creation.
Posing a threat to the music industry
For the music industry, the impact of AI cloning sound to generate music is enormous. With the advancement of technology, in the near future, people can easily convert their singing voice into the voice of their favorite singer using a certain software.
It has been proven that AI has had a huge impact on the copyright industry.
In the case of Heart on My Sleeve, Universal Music Group (UMG), a record company signed by two singers, soon put forward a copyright claim and asked to remove the song from the streaming media service.
Mark Ostro, a music copyright lawyer in New York, stated that AI generated music is a "gray area".
How is copyright defined? What level of replication is' reasonable use '? How can we prevent the expansion of its unreasonable use?
David Israel, chairman and CEO of the National Music Publishers Association (NMPA), said that songwriters and music publishers should be allowed to better protect their works from unauthorized use, which will face unprecedented challenges in the AI era.
