Zaniyah Monet becomes the first AI-generated artist to land on a Billboard radio chart with the song "How Was I Supposed to Know." The record deal, reportedly worth $3 million, has sparked backlash from advocacy groups like United Musicians and Allied Workers over the lack of AI protections for human creators. While a human poet named Talisha Nikki Jones reportedly prompts the AI, the music industry is viewed as using the project as a trial balloon for future automated content.
