Legendary musician Paul McCartney is warning against proposed changes to U.K. copyright law that would allow tech companies to freely train their models

Paul McCartney told the BBC that would make it harder for artists to retain control of their work and undermine Britain's creative industries.

Paul McCartney said proposed changes to copyright laws that would allow AI developers to use content will make it difficult for artists to make money.

The UK government is set to consult on a scheme that allows AI firms to use existing musical works to train their models.

Sir Paul McCartney has told the BBC proposed changes to copyright law could allow "rip off" technology that might make it impossible for musicians and artists to make a living.

"Somebody's getting paid, so why shouldn't it be the guy who sat down and wrote 'Yesterday'?" the former Beatle said.

Paul McCartney cautions that AI could exploit artists unless UK copyright reforms are enacted. He stresses the need for protections to ensure creators are compensated, as tech giants may otherwise profit.

English singer-songwriter Paul McCartney urged the British Government to not make any changes to the copyright laws in the U.K. since many different artificial intelligence (AI) companies could rip off artists in the music industry.
