SoundCloud is facing criticism from its creators after terms of use, revised in February 2024, allow the platform to use uploaded music for AI training. The initial complaints gained traction when the duo The Flight announced their account deletion in response to these changes. Growing concern surrounds tech companies' increasing reliance on user-generated data for AI development. The Federal Trade Commission has warned that such changes may violate laws if done without proper transparency, emphasizing the need for clear communication with users regarding data usage for AI.
SoundCloud's recent updates to its terms of use have sparked outrage among creators, revealing that uploaded music can be used for training AI systems.
The Federal Trade Commission cautioned companies about potentially misleading practices in updating terms that could allow for broader use of consumer data for AI training.
