TL;DR Summary

A song that uses AI to clone the voices of Drake and The Weeknd has been removed from streaming services including Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer, and Tidal, following criticism from publishers Universal Music Group, who said the song violated copyright law. The track simulates Drake and The Weeknd trading verses about pop star and actress Selena Gomez, who previously dated The Weeknd. The creator, known as @ghostwriter, claims the song was created by software trained on the musicians' voices. Universal Music Group said platforms had a "legal and ethical responsibility" to prevent the use of services harming artists.
