Members of SAG-AFTRA voted to ratify the 2024 Sound Recordings Code with record labels, approving a new contract with AI protections. Under this agreement, the terms “artist,” “singer,” and “royalty artist” only include humans, with “clear and conspicuous consent” alongside minimum compensation requirements and specific details of intended use required prior to the release of a sound recording that uses a digital replication of an artist’s voice.
