Our stance on AI-generated music Hi Nicholas Bauer! AI music generation tools are changing how music is created and distributed. As this technology evolves, Tidal is introducing platform standards to protect artists, their craft, and inform listeners. Here are the highlights of our new AI Policy: Tidal will identify and tag AI-generated music in our app. Listeners will see an "AI" badge next to music we detect as wholly AI-generated. Tidal will not tolerate AI-generated music that impersonates an artist or group, or that facilitates fraudulent activity. We're implementing automatic tools to remove these releases immediately and on an ongoing basis. Tidal will not allow music that is 100% AI-generated to be monetized. No royalties will go to such releases, nor will AI-generated uploads be eligible for direct-to-fan sales. We will expand these policies to music that is substantially AI-generated when AI detection technology is sufficiently reliable to do so. You'll start seeing these changes from July 15.

You can read into that as a sign of progress. This also shows the importance the president places on this region: Any deal he would obviously want to let them know about. He told Axios earlier that he was “50/50”: 50 percent considering going back to war and 50 percent agreeing to the proposal. It’s important to remember that Donald Trump said he was an hour away from relaunching military strikes against Iran, but then told reporters he stopped after requests from leadership in the Gulf because they wanted to see if a peace deal could be reached. So, it’s very notable who he’s not speaking to – and also notable who he’s not speaking to. We’re going to be waiting to see if he reaches out to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Hi Nicholas, Your profile really stood out! 👀 I also came across your GitHub and really liked your work. Would you be open to exploring a role at xAI? I think it could be a great match, with flexibility to contribute part-time on your own schedule. If you’re interested, I’ll send over the application link - and if not, just let me know so I can update your preferences on my end. Looking forward to hearing back from you!

Yeah. And let me also be clear. I’ve never trusted Trump on this, or on the economy, or on keeping us safe in general. You are trusting him on this, though, right? No. You aren’t? I’m trusting the military and our generals. I’m trusting what I understand to be the operation and the people leading it—that is, the generals and our military and our allies. You’re trusting the people leading the operation who don’t include the President? Well, I don’t trust that guy. Yeah. He’s the Commander-in-Chief, right?
