Overview: This project explores how AI-generated music reshapes creativity, authorship and originality through AI cover production. Using Justin Bieber’s Baby as the source material, the team generated Chinese-style and rock-style versions with Suno AI and examined how AI can imitate musical styles while raising questions about copyright, emotional authenticity and the changing role of human creators in digital culture.

Concept
Poster description: The poster presents a split portrait contrasting human creation with AI replication, using warm colours on one side and futuristic digital aesthetics on the other to visualise the relationship between creativity and machine-generated content. It highlights questions of copyright, voice ownership and artistic identity, encouraging viewers to reflect on whether AI can reproduce music without replacing the human experience behind it.
