The source provides an extensive overview of the profound technological changes brought by artificial intelligence to the music business by 2025, describing how AI has rapidly moved from a novelty to an embedded force across creation, economics, and distribution. Because AI can now generate chart-topping tracks and cheap instrumental stems, the traditional publishing model is fracturing, leading collection societies to implement novel solutions like “AI Contribution Scoring” to compensate legacy artists for algorithmic use of their style. Discovery is also undergoing an upheaval as major platforms like Spotify and TikTok are using generative AI to power hyper-personalized recommendation engines and remix tools, fueling an intense, automated playlisting arms race. Furthermore, the industry has established new legal standards, such as the "Voice Rights Accord," to license synthetic voice clones for both living and deceased artists, while fully virtual idols are selling out large-scale holographic performances. Ultimately, this revolution is causing extreme stratification by eliminating the human middle class of creators; the future market is projected to split into an expensive "authenticity" economy for verified human art and a massive, low-monetization "utility" economy built on functional, AI-generated sound.
