Les procureurs f\u00e9d\u00e9raux ont accus\u00e9 un \"musicien\" de Caroline du Nord d'avoir orchestr\u00e9 une fraude \u00e9labor\u00e9e de $10 millions d'euros en utilisant de la musique g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9e par l'IA.<\/b><\/p>\n

Michael Smith, 52 ans, a \u00e9t\u00e9 arr\u00eat\u00e9 mercredi pour fraude \u00e9lectronique, complicit\u00e9 de fraude \u00e9lectronique et complicit\u00e9 de blanchiment d'argent.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Selon les procureurs, M. Smith a utilis\u00e9 une technologie d'intelligence artificielle pour cr\u00e9er des centaines de milliers de fausses chansons de groupes inexistants, puis a employ\u00e9 des robots pour diffuser ces titres des millions de fois sur des plateformes populaires telles que Spotify, Apple Music et Amazon Music.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 son stratag\u00e8me frauduleux, M. Smith a vol\u00e9 des millions de redevances qui auraient d\u00fb \u00eatre vers\u00e9es aux musiciens, aux auteurs-compositeurs et aux autres d\u00e9tenteurs de droits dont les chansons \u00e9taient l\u00e9gitimement diffus\u00e9es en continu\", a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 M. Smith. <\/span>dit US<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span> Avocat<\/span><\/a> Damian Williams.<\/span><\/p>\n

Selon l'acte d'accusation non scell\u00e9 (un document juridique officiel qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 rendu public apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 initialement gard\u00e9 confidentiel), l'op\u00e9ration de Smith a dur\u00e9 sept ans. Elle a consist\u00e9 \u00e0 cr\u00e9er des milliers de faux comptes de streaming en utilisant des adresses \u00e9lectroniques achet\u00e9es.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

M. Smith aurait m\u00eame d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 un logiciel permettant d'\u00e9couter en boucle la musique g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9e par l'IA \u00e0 partir de plusieurs ordinateurs, imitant ainsi des auditeurs individuels situ\u00e9s dans des lieux diff\u00e9rents.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pour \u00e9viter d'\u00eatre d\u00e9tect\u00e9, il aurait distribu\u00e9 de fausses activit\u00e9s de streaming \u00e0 travers un ensemble de fausses chansons, en g\u00e9n\u00e9rant soigneusement des noms uniques pour les artistes et les morceaux cr\u00e9\u00e9s par l'IA.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Parmi ces surnoms bizarres et absurdes, on trouve des groupes comme \"Callous Post\" et \"Calorie Screams\", avec des titres de chansons comme \"Zygotic Washstands\" et \"Zymotechnical\". Je me demande quelle invite il a utilis\u00e9e pour g\u00e9n\u00e9rer ces titres ?<\/span><\/p>\n

Le projet s'est av\u00e9r\u00e9 exceptionnellement lucratif. <\/span>Dans un courriel envoy\u00e9 au d\u00e9but de l'ann\u00e9e, Smith s'est vant\u00e9 d'avoir atteint 4 milliards de streams et $12 millions de royalties depuis 2019. <\/span><\/p>\n

Les procureurs affirment qu'en juin 2019, Smith gagnait environ $110 000 par mois, en partageant une partie avec des co-conspirateurs anonymes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Du point de vue de l'IA, on ne sait pas exactement comment ces chansons ont \u00e9t\u00e9 g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9es par l'IA en 2019, car il n'y avait pas beaucoup d'outils de haute qualit\u00e9 pour cela \u00e0 l'\u00e9poque, comme c'est le cas aujourd'hui. Aujourd'hui, des outils comme Udio<\/a>Suno, etc., rendraient probablement une telle escroquerie encore plus facile \u00e0 r\u00e9aliser.<\/p>\n

Il convient de souligner que les plateformes de diffusion en continu sont confront\u00e9es depuis des d\u00e9cennies \u00e0 des syst\u00e8mes de botting, dans lesquels des artistes, des labels et des fraudeurs tentent de jouer avec le syst\u00e8me.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Spotify, Apple Music et d'autres plateformes ont depuis longtemps \u00e9t\u00e9\u00a0lutter contre les faux flux, en utilisant l'IA pour analyser et stopper l'activit\u00e9 des robots. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

La musique g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9e par l'IA est omnipr\u00e9sente sur Spotify, et l'on pourrait penser que la plateforme pourrait commencer \u00e0 pr\u00eater plus d'attention \u00e0 ses<\/span>\u00a0origines et les intentions aujourd'hui.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ce qui rend l'affaire Smith remarquable, cependant, c'est la combinaison d'un botting \u00e0 grande \u00e9chelle et d'un contenu g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9 par l'IA.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

C'\u00e9tait intelligent. Mais le bras long de la loi a fini par le rattraper.<\/span><\/p>\n

Les industries de la musique et de l'IA sont \u00e0 couteaux tir\u00e9s<\/strong><\/h2>\n

L'IA et les industries cr\u00e9atives se sont largement m\u00e9lang\u00e9es comme l'huile et l'eau. Bien qu'elles ne se m\u00e9langent pas naturellement, leur combinaison a donn\u00e9 naissance \u00e0 une concoction volatile pleine de potentiel et de risques.<\/p>\n

Il y a quelques mois \u00e0 peine, les trois plus grandes maisons de disques du monde <\/span>a intent\u00e9 une action en justice au niveau f\u00e9d\u00e9ral<\/span><\/a> contre les plateformes de conversion de texte en audio Suno et Udio, all\u00e9guant une \"violation massive d'enregistrements sonores prot\u00e9g\u00e9s par le droit d'auteur\".<\/span><\/p>\n

La Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), qui repr\u00e9sente Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment et Warner Records, affirme qu'il existe des preuves solides que Suno et Udio ont utilis\u00e9 sans autorisation de la musique prot\u00e9g\u00e9e par des droits d'auteur pour entra\u00eener leurs mod\u00e8les d'intelligence artificielle.<\/span><\/p>\n

De m\u00eame, en avril 2024, plus de <\/span>200 artistes de renom<\/span><\/a>Des artistes comme Billie Eilish, Nicki Minaj et Jon Bon Jovi se sont engag\u00e9s \u00e0 lutter contre la musique artificielle.<\/span><\/p>\n

L'int\u00e9gration de l'IA dans la musique n'est pas universellement per\u00e7ue comme une menace. Certains y voient une force de d\u00e9mocratisation, permettant aux producteurs d'exp\u00e9rimenter diff\u00e9rents formats sans la manipulation humaine impliqu\u00e9e dans les processus traditionnels de signature de disques. <\/span><\/p>\n

Que penseront les musiciens qui luttent pour mon\u00e9tiser leur travail, souvent g\u00e9n\u00e9reux, sur les plateformes de diffusion en continu ?<\/p>\n

L'utilisation de l'IA pour manipuler les algorithmes de plateformes souvent critiqu\u00e9es pour avoir sous-pay\u00e9 les artistes peut sembler un crime sans victime pour certains. Cependant, la manipulation malhonn\u00eate des chiffres du streaming a des cons\u00e9quences profondes.<\/p>\n

Si de nombreux artistes se sentent l\u00e9s\u00e9s par les plateformes de streaming, les pratiques frauduleuses telles que celles all\u00e9gu\u00e9es dans l'affaire Smith sont susceptibles de nuire \u00e0 l'ensemble de l'\u00e9cosyst\u00e8me musical.<\/p>\n

Elles peuvent diluer les flux l\u00e9gitimes, fausser les algorithmes de d\u00e9couverte, saper la confiance et probablement rendre plus difficile le succ\u00e8s des artistes honn\u00eates.<\/p>\n

Il s'agit d'une nouvelle fronti\u00e8re sur laquelle les artistes et les plateformes devront se battre pour garantir un \u00e9cosyst\u00e8me \u00e9quitable et transparent. Les artistes risquent d'\u00eatre distanc\u00e9s.<\/p>\n
