Episode 541 – Ethical AI in the Music Industry: Is It Possible? | Mick Kiely

In this week’s episode, I sit down with the founder of IAIAI Technologies, Mick Kiely.

IAIAI Technologies uses ethical AI technology to protect music copyright holder’s interests. Its GeanAI produces an AI fingerprint that profiles and tracks copyrighted works, while its QuiBot is an AI composer that is responsibly trained on music theory rather than scraping others’ works. 

The company’s Mymic is a repository for cloned voices, while its Quantum Star Project is a research project into how quantum computing can be used in music.

All this is the brainchild of Mick Kiely, a musician and television composer who started his technology journey composing scores for video games. 

Mick would then go on to start the world’s first generative music platform called XHAIL, which was embraced by the creatives in Hollywood. 

This led to the birth of IAIAI Technologies, with the main idea that AI serves as a force for good to reward and protect artists.

Together, Mick and I will be discussing the irreversibility of AI training and what it means for the music industry, how Mymic creates voice DNA profiles to detect voice cloning, why the industry has to find a balance between AI innovation and protecting artists’ rights, and more.
