Kate Bush, Annie Lennox, and a slew of other stars are on this silent album. Here's why
Briefly

The album 'Is This What We Want?' features over 1,000 musicians, including notable artists like Kate Bush and Elton John, released to protest UK proposals allowing AI firms to use copyrighted music without permission. Critics fear this could strip artists of creative control, with recordings of silence symbolizing the potential loss of vibrant creative spaces. The album's profits support musicians' welfare, emphasizing the need for a balance between AI development and the protection of artists' rights afresh in U.K. law.
The British government must not legalize music theft to benefit AI companies.
It is a plan that would not only be disastrous for musicians, but that is totally unnecessary.
