So, for instance, you get young guys, girls, coming up and they write a beautiful song and they don't own it. and they don't have anything to do with it, and anyone who wants can just rip it off. I mean, the truth is, the money's going somewhere. You know, when it gets on the streaming platforms, somebody's getting it, and it should be the person who created it.

You know, that is really true, because... You like to think of art as the muse, you know, it's just the muse comes to me. It's not like that.

Yeah, I get that, you know, and I think AI is great and it can do lots of great things. As you say, you know, we took an old cassette of John's and cleaned his voice up, so it has its uses. But my worry is in this rip-off. You know, that was John's thing. He was in the Beatles. His widow gave us the tape. So there was no question of sort of copyright.

But when you get if you take that and then rip it off. See, for instance, I think I'm on the Internet singing God Only Knows by the Beach Boys, but I never sang it. But AI made me sing it. So somebody's getting some sort of payoff there. And it's not me. I'm not interested. But I was talking to someone and I said, you know, it didn't sound like me. Not quite.

But to casual observers, it's me singing God Only Knows. But I said to this person, I said, yeah, but, you know, give it five years and it's going to sound exactly like me. And the guy said, one. Give it one year. And it's true. It's going so fast that, you know, they're going to be able to put my voice on anything, anybody's voice on anything. So I think you just have to worry about the rip off.

AI is a great thing, but it shouldn't rip creative people off. There's no sense in that. Why would a government want to do that? I don't get it. We're the people. You're the government. You're supposed to protect us. That's your job. So, you know, if you're putting through a bill, make sure you protect the creative thinkers, the creative artists, or you're not going to have them.

If there's such a thing as a government... It's their responsibility, I would think, to protect the young people, to try and enhance that whole thing so that it works, so that these people have got jobs and can enhance the world with their wonderful art. So protect it.

Gaza's ceasefire is holding, but death and destruction continue in the occupied West Bank. We'll hear why some electromagnetic waves from space have got scientists excited. Apparently, they're like the chirping of birds. Also in this podcast... the French film in Spanish set in Mexico that's cleaned up in the Oscars nominations.

There's a saying often quoted in Britain that a week is a long time in politics. You do wonder if Donald Trump has taken this to heart as he continues the breakneck speed of his first few days back in the White House.
