Legendary musician Paul McCartney is warning against proposed changes to U.K. copyright law that would allow tech companies to freely train their models

Paul McCartney has urged the British government not to make a change to copyright laws that he says could let artificial intelligence companies rip off artists.

Paul McCartney said proposed changes to copyright laws that would allow AI developers to use content will make it difficult for artists to make money.

Paul McCartney stumped for protections for younger artists against A.I. and against their exploitation by tech giants in a recent BBC interview.

This comes after McCartney and his fellow surviving Beatle Sir Ringo Starr used AI to extract the late John Lennon’s vocals from a demo left behind, to create a new song Now and Then. The song has been billed as The Beatles’ very final song and enjoyed critical praise on its release in 2023, nominated for two Grammy Awards.

Sir Paul McCartney has told the BBC proposed changes to copyright law could allow "rip off" technology that might make it impossible for musicians and artists to make a living.

During a recent interview, Paul McCartney said he was worried only tech giants would benefit from AI in music unless copyrights were protected.

Paul McCartney is calling for the British government to protect artists in light of a new copyright law that could enable artificial intelligence to "rip off" creators.

"Somebody's getting paid, so why shouldn't it be the guy who sat down and wrote 'Yesterday'?" the former Beatle said.

Paul McCartney cautions that AI could exploit artists unless UK copyright reforms are enacted. He stresses the need for protections to ensure creators are compensated, as tech giants may otherwise profit.
