Artists have joined together to stand against a rising issue regarding artificial intelligence (AI).
In an open letter, almost 300 artists, songwriters, actors, and creators have shared their support for the No Artificial Intelligence Fake Replicas and Unauthorized Duplications Act (or No AI Fraud Act), a new bipartisan bill, which has the objective of regulating AI deepfakes and AI cloning of both voice and likeness, according to Billboard.
The bill was first introduced on Jan. 10 in the U.S. House of Representatives by Rep. María Elvira Salazar (R-FL) and fellow representatives, Madeleine Dean (D-PA),Nathaniel Moran (R-TX), Joe Morelle (D-NY), and Rob Wittman (R-VA).
Among the creator group supporting the bill are music artists Mary J. Blige, Missy Elliott, Smokey Robinson, Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, 21 Savage, Offset, Common, and Questlove, who are featured in a USA Today ad by the Human Artistry Campaign.
