It’s the screams of the damned!’ The eerie AI world of deepfake music

Deepfake music is set to have wide-ranging ramifications for the music industry as more companies apply algorithms to music.

Even Spotify is dabbling; its AI research group is led by François Pachet, former head of Sony Music’s computer science lab.
