🎼 1,000 artists release silent AI protest album Is This What We Want? /// Consequence

Titled Is This What We Want? the project contains recordings of empty studios and performance spaces, which represent the “impact we expect the government’s proposals would have on musicians’ livelihoods.” It consists of 12 tracks, which spell out a message that reads, “The British government must not legalise music theft to benefit AI companies.”

Love this. We need more people with a voice and audience to speak up against the rampant theft of AI happening everywhere.
