AI-generated Drake and The Weeknd song go viral

A song using AI to clone the voices of Drake and The Weeknd has gone viral on social media. Called Heart On My Sleeve, the track simulates the two stars trading verses about pop star Selena Gomez. The creator, known as @ghostwriter, claims the song was created by software trained on the musician’s voices. Since it was posted, the song has been viewed more than 9 million times on TikTok. However, Drake has expressed displeasure at his voice being cloned, leading to Universal Music Group writing to streaming services asking them to prevent artificial intelligence companies from accessing their libraries. The rapid rise of AI has rattled the music industry, leading to the launch of a “Human Artistry Campaign” to ensure AI will not “erode” human creativity.
