Director general <strong>Cristina Perpi\u00f1\u00e1-Robert<\/strong> raised the concern during a panel in Miami on October 20, arguing that licensing alone would not protect creators\u2019 livelihoods.<\/p>\n<p>Perpi\u00f1\u00e1-Robert said the organisation was \u201cvery concerned to see that regulation is insufficient\u201d as creators and authors are being \u201ccompletely excluded from the business model\u201d.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cOur greatest concern is not so much licensing, but the fact that AI-generated content is completely replacing human creators. That is our concern. Therefore, it is not just about how to license the model, but how to prevent creators from no longer being hired because synthetic music can simply be used instead.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Study projects risks to copyright income<\/h2>\n<p>Perpi\u00f1\u00e1-Robert cited a study SGAE presented in September 2025, titled <em>The Economic and Social Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Music Creation and Its Effects on Other Areas of Culture<\/em>. Produced by consultancy <strong>Know Media<\/strong> with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uc3m.es\/\">Carlos III University<\/a><\/strong>, it drew on a survey of 1.257 authors.<\/p>\n<p>The study projected the following <a href=\"https:\/\/interspacemusic.com\/blog\/goldman-sachs-raises-music-forecast-flags-ai-risks-for-labels\/\">potential effects of generative AI<\/a>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Up to <strong>28%<\/strong> of music copyright income at risk in 2028, equivalent to around <strong>100 million euros<\/strong> that year.<\/li>\n<li>A cumulative impact of <strong>160 to 180 million euros<\/strong> between 2025 and 2028.<\/li>\n<li>Scenarios ranging from <strong>20% to 31%<\/strong>, with 28% considered the likely outcome.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The survey also found that <strong>34%<\/strong> of respondents had used AI tools at some point. Perpi\u00f1\u00e1-Robert described that use positively, saying those creators \u201care very happy using it, and it is something very normal\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>SGAE distinguishes between AI used as a tool by authors and synthetic music composed and performed entirely using generative AI.<\/p>\n<h2>Compensation for AI-generated content<\/h2>\n<p>European collective management organisations, including SGAE, are seeking financial compensation for AI-generated content, which often draws on existing human works.<\/p>\n<p>Perpi\u00f1\u00e1-Robert said the aim was to \u201cmaintain the incentive for creators to keep working, but also to discourage users from using synthetic music\u201d. If users have to pay for it anyway, she added, \u201cthen perhaps they might choose to purchase original creative content from human authors\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She also warned that AI models tend to favour large catalogues of commercial music. She argued that \u201cthere must be some form of regulation to ensure that these niche repertoires, which are less commercial than Anglo-American repertoire, continue to be encouraged\u201d, referring to repertoires more prevalent in Europe.<\/p>\n<h2>Human creativity remains the registration requirement<\/h2>\n<p>On works made with AI assistance, Perpi\u00f1\u00e1-Robert said: \u201cIf it is a work created with the help of AI, it is protected and can be registered,\u201d provided human creativity is involved. SGAE uses technology to detect patterns indicating AI use in works submitted for registration.<\/p>\n<p>Her comments came as an early election in Spain had left the main pending cultural regulations unprocessed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SGAE director general Cristina Perpi\u00f1\u00e1-Robert called for stronger AI regulation, warning that synthetic music is replacing
