Harvey Mason Jr. says the “toughest part” of his job as president/CEO of the Recording Academy and MusiCares is figuring out what to do about AI. “I represent 40,000 members of the academy, and we’re trying to figure out where is the best place to sit [on AI],” he said in a new interview with Billboard. “I want to advocate for our human members and human creators, but I also realize that this technology is here.” Mason took over the role in 2020, years before we’d start to really notice an influx of fake AI artists racking up hundreds of thousands of Spotify streams, inching their way up Billboard‘s niche charts, and take advantage of real human artists.
