“Drake’s complaint came after Universal Music Group wrote to streaming services including Spotify and Apple Music, asking them to prevent artificial intelligence companies from accessing their libraries.

It is thought companies have been using the music to “train” their software.

“We will not hesitate to take steps to protect our rights and those of our artists,” UMG warned in the email, first obtained by the Financial Times.

Several websites already offer fans the ability to create new songs using soundalike voices of pop’s biggest stars.

French DJ David Guetta recently used a site called uberduck.ai to mimic the voice of Eminem and add it to one of his instrumentals.

“I’m sure the future of music is in AI,” he told the BBC.”
