SZA Speaks Out Against AI's Disproportionate Impact on Black Music
SZA has expressed her concerns about the impact of AI on the music industry, particularly on Black artists. In a recent interview, she stated that she feels like she's 'at war because of AI' and criticized the technology for 'disproportionately' affecting Black music.
SZA's comments come as AI-generated music continues to gain popularity, with many artists using AI tools to create and produce music. However, SZA argues that this trend is having a negative impact on Black artists, who are already underrepresented in the music industry.
"Why am I hearing AI covers of Olivia Dean, when Olivia Dean just came the fuck out?" SZA asked in an interview with NME. "It's like, what's the point of even having a Black artist if you're just going to replace them with an AI?"
SZA's comments have sparked a wider conversation about the impact of AI on the music industry and the need for greater representation and diversity. As AI-generated music becomes increasingly popular, it's clear that the industry needs to take steps to address these issues and ensure that Black artists are not left behind.
