Welcome to Tune in Dialogues!

On 25 March 2025, The European Composer and Songwriter Alliance (ECSA) organised the Creators Conference at the European Parliament in Brussels. This first podcast episode features a recording of the first panel of this conference, titled "Copyright and Generative AI: Fundamental Challenges for Creators and the Way Forward", during which Alexandra Bensamoun (Université Paris-Saclay), Helienne Lindvall (ECSA), Dominick Luquer (FIA), and Julia Niebler-Kaiser (GEMA) dived into the main challenges posed by AI training to music authors, creators and others rightsholders in the context of the current EU legal framework.

With interviews, conversations, and panel sessions featuring composers, songwriters, and other industry professionals, the podcast aims to update you on relevant developments on topics such as artificial intelligence, music streaming, composing for media and film, and diversity and inclusion in the creative sectors.
