Musician sentenced for AI streaming fraud
A 54-year-old musician in the US has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for orchestrating a large-scale streaming fraud scheme. Using up to 10,000 bots, thousands of fake accounts, and thousands of AI-generated songs, he manipulated streaming platforms such as Apple Music, Amazon Music, and YouTube between 2017 and 2024. The fraudulent streams generated millions in royalty payments. At one point, his songs achieved 80.9 million streams in April, far surpassing Taylor Swift's 9.3 million. The court also ordered him to repay over $8 million. His defense argued that no musicians were directly harmed, but prosecutors countered that real artists and fans were deprived of royalties.
