Music is standing at a crossroads.
AI-generated music is flooding the market faster than we’ve ever seen before. According to a new report from CISAC (the International Confederation of Societies of Authors and Composers), as much as 24% of songwriter revenues could disappear to AI by 2028. That’s more than 5 billion dollars a year!
But what does that really mean for you – the songwriter, the player, the singer, the producer?
At Nashville Nights, we’re hosting a thought-provoking talk with Tim Wipperman, CEO of Humanable – a true voice in the music industry, not just following the changes, but helping to shape them.
Wipperman is the real deal: nearly three decades as head of Warner Chappell Music Nashville, later driving forces at Equity Records, Anthem Entertainment, ONErpm, and now Humanable – a platform created to strengthen and protect human creativity in an age when algorithms are closing in.

A straight-up look at the threat of AI-generated music
