BPI response to Spotify announcement on AI

17 October 2025 - Press release

Welcoming the announcement, Dr Jo Twist OBE, BPI Chief Executive, said:

"The BPI has long argued that innovative partnerships, based on an ethical approach that respects copyright, sit at the heart of the debate around AI and human artistry.  We welcome this powerful recognition that, far from being the barrier that some claim it to be, copyright is absolutely integral to forging new opportunities that will deliver a bright future to creators. Music and technology businesses continually come together to support creativity, and agreements such as this signal how AI's exciting potential can be realised to everyone's mutual benefit."
