ABBA, Radiohead and The Cure musicians sign AI protest letter against ‘unlicensed use’ of works

Thousands of artists signed the letter released Tuesday — the latest public warning about AI tools that can spit out synthetic images, music and writings after being trained on huge troves of human-made works.
