Question for written answer E-000528/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Eleonora Meleti (PPE)
With the growing dominance of music streaming and the rapid development of artificial intelligence in music creation, there is a growing concern that AI could exacerbate existing inequalities, undermine the value of human creativity, threaten fair remuneration models and even cultural heritage itself.
The European Parliament has underlined the need for better working conditions and fair remuneration for cultural and creative professionals, in particular creators, as well as the need to ensure that AI is used ethically by creating a clear, timely and visible label to inform the public that a work has been generated by AI.
In view of the above:
- 1.How does the Commission intend to ensure that music generated by AI does not replace or devalue the work of human creators? Will it introduce specific measures to regulate the use of AI in the music industry, such as a transparency requirement for AI-generated content?
- 2.Will it undertake legislative initiatives aimed at creating fairer revenue distribution models and mechanisms to protect cultural diversity and creators’ rights in the area of digital services, namely music streaming and video on demand, including the rights to use their work for training AI?
