Man Arrested for Creating Fake Bands With AI, Then Making $10 Million by Listening to Their Songs With Bots
An alleged scammer has been arrested under suspicion that he used AI to create a wild number of fake bands — and fake streams to with them.
The feds seem to have him dead to rights.
That's weird. I thought AI didn't infringe on copyright...
8 1 ReplyThe charges appear to stem from faking listener traffic to get royalties from the streaming services, not from infringing copyrights—the fact that it was AI-generated is probably irrelevant.

He is fucked, bad idea to mess around with big corpos.
He can perfectly scam to random population and nothing will happen(just like a lot of people do) but big corpos it's another thing.
