Celine Dion has expressed her disapproval of music that was produced by artificial intelligence and in which her voice was allegedly taken advantage of without her permission.
Taking to her official Instagram account on Friday, March 7, the singer, who is well known for her single "Heart Will Go On," addressed the issue of her voice being used online by an artificial intelligence without her permission.
"It has come to our attention that unsanctioned, AI-generated music purporting to contain Celine Dion's musical performances and name and likeness is currently circulating online and across various digital service providers," she stated at the beginning.
"Please be advised that these recordings are fake and not approved, and that they are not songs from her official discography," the five-time Grammy winner continued. "Please be aware of this."

Dion's tweet coincided with the growing anxiety among creative individuals, particularly musicians, regarding the possibility of artificial intelligence (AI) creating music without the permission of the artist and reaping profits from it.
In the year 2024, well over two hundred musicians have signed an open letter that condemns "AI music generation technology." This letter was drafted with the assistance of the Artists Rights Alliance.
The petition specifically states, "We, the undersigned members of the artist and songwriting communities, call on AI developers, technology companies, platforms, and digital music services to cease the use of artificial intelligence to infringe upon and devalue the rights of human artists."
Billie Eilish, Zayn Malik, Jon Bon Jovi, Katy Perry, Camila Cabello, and a great number of other well-known musicians were among the artists who signed the petition.
According to the official statement, we believe that, when used responsibly, AI has enormous potential to advance human creativity in a manner that enables the development and growth of new and exciting experiences for music fans everywhere.
