This AI lets you make money from voices & it’s ethical too!

Arpeggi Labs is shaking things up in the AI music world with their ‘Kits Earn’ program, allowing vocalists to upload voice clips and create licensed AI voice models that other musicians can use. And the best? Every time your AI voice model is used you are getting paid. Talk about a win-win!

Kits·AI unlocks ethical AI voice licensing

Since its launch last year, Kits·AI has been tackling the tricky issue of artists’ voices being used in AI-generated music without their consent or compensation. With ‘Kits Earn,’ vocalists can now create ‘Verified Voice Models’ and earn royalties whenever their AI voice is used. It’s a game-changer for respecting intellectual property rights while still fostering innovation.

“Kits Earn lets artists safely share their voices and earn passive income,” explains Evan Dhillon, co-founder of Arpeggi Labs. “And creators know the voices they use are ethically sourced and fairly compensated.”

Getting the ‘Fairly Trained’ stamp of approval

As AI music grows, there are valid concerns about bias and inequality creeping in. That’s why Arpeggi Labs went the extra mile to get certified by the ‘Fairly Trained’ scheme. This stamp of approval means Kits·AI meets high ethical standards for sourcing and training its AI models.

“We’re proud to support the Artist Rights Alliance’s mission to prioritize ethics in AI,” says the Kits team. “No shady business here!”

How Kits·AI keeps things ethical

So, how does Kits·AI ensure everything is above board? First, they directly reach out to vocalists and studios interested in providing vocal data. Then, they educate these providers on AI model training and set up contracts to compensate them fairly for their contributions. This way, artists maintain full control over their intellectual property.

By acquiring full rights to the vocal data used for training, Kits·AI avoids any potential copyright issues or takedown notices for works created using unauthorized vocal samples. It’s a clean, ethical process from start to finish.

Paving the way for an ethical AI music future

The expansion of ‘Kits Earn’ and the ‘Fairly Trained’ certification are major steps towards building a more ethical and sustainable AI music ecosystem. As this technology continues to evolve, initiatives like Kits·AI show that it’s possible to empower artists, respect their rights, and promote inclusivity.

With its focus on ethical sourcing, fair compensation, and transparency, Arpeggi Labs’ Kits·AI platform could become a model for other companies looking to harness the power of AI in music while upholding the principles of artistic integrity and creative freedom. It’s an exciting time for AI music, and Arpeggi Labs is leading the charge in doing it right.
