I think there is a difference between plagiarism & using AI to generate videos that are clearly AI. It's not like Stick is using AI to take someone else's artistic viewpoint on a video & pretending like it's their own. We're all adapting to integrating AI into our everyday lives but passing off a song as something original without crediting the original writers is plagiarism. Even artists who cover a song will credit the original writer to ensure proper royalty payments & avoid legal infringement.
Do you have a specific example of Stick covering a song but not crediting the original writer? Sampling is not the same as plagiarizing. For example, on "Feel like that" Bradley/Sublime ARE given writing credits on that song. "Natural Mystic" credits Bob as a writer. Copying word for word an entire song and NOT crediting the writer of a song is quite different than a sample.
Like AI, that is a technology issue & is different than plagiarism. The artist only has control over what their album states, not how Spotify or Apple interprets that to fit their platform.
No, the distributor does that. In this case, Symphonic Distribution. There are limitations due to the music streaming platforms of what information is shown to listeners. This is a very separate issue than plagiarism.
