🇬🇧Musicians Fight AI Copyright Changes in Silence Over 1,000 musicians, including Kate Bush and Cat Stevens, have released a silent album to oppose the UK government’s proposed copyright changes, which could allow AI companies to train on creative works without permission. The 12-track album, titled "Is This What We Want?", spells out a clear message: “The British government must not legalise music theft to benefit AI companies.” Artists argue that the proposal reverses fundamental copyright principles, effectively handing their life’s work to AI developers for free. Figures like Elton John, Paul McCartney, and Andrew Lloyd Webber have joined the opposition, warning that weakening copyright laws will undermine the UK’s creative industries. With public consultation closing, the battle over AI and intellectual property is far from over. #AI#Copyright#Ethics
