In a startling revelation, award-winning singer Emily Portman discovered that AI-generated music was being released under her name without her consent. This incident highlights a growing trend where independent artists are increasingly becoming targets of fraudulent releases, raising concerns about the integrity of music platforms and the protection of artists’ rights. Portman found an album titled “Orca,” featuring tracks that mimicked her style but lacked any real human creativity, prompting her to file copyright complaints to have the music removed.
