Music created using AI technology can now be nominated for Grammy Awards, according to recent guideline changes announced by The Recording Academy. The adjustments were made to reflect the evolving music industry, which has seen a rise in the popularity of AI-assisted art. The initial addition to the rulebook raised concerns about the definition of AI collaboration, stating that only human creators could be nominated. However, Recording Academy CEO, Harvey Mason Jr., provided further clarity in a recent interview, confirming that AI-created music is eligible for entry and consideration for Grammy nominations as long as the human contribution is meaningful. Mason emphasized that the goal is to enhance human creativity, not replace it with technology. For example, a track featuring an AI or voice modeling program in the lead vocal can be nominated in a songwriting category but not in a performance category. The Recording Academy conducted extensive research and held tech summits to establish the new guidelines. While it remains unclear if AI-created tracks will be nominated for awards in the upcoming year, Mason believes the technology will be involved in many records and songs submitted. The changes aim to strike a balance between the use of AI and human creativity in the music industry.
