Agentic AI promises to revolutionize the life of a musician. Imagine a tireless, intelligent partner that co-creates music with you, manages your business affairs, and engages with your fans 24/7. This technology offers unparalleled efficiency and creative potential, allowing artists to focus purely on their art. But what happens when this powerful autonomous system is hijacked. When the AI designed to protect your career becomes the very tool used to sabotage it. This episode dives into the critical security and cyber-resilience challenges of agentic AI in music, exploring the dark side of a technology that holds immense promise and hidden peril. A case study on this topic: Think of an up-and-coming indie artist who uses an AI agent to help manage their social media and create promotional audio snippets. A rival discovers a vulnerability and hijacks the agent. They use the artist's own vocal model to generate and release a deepfake track filled with hateful lyrics, publishing it across all platforms under the artist's name. The pain point is immediate and devastating: the artist faces public backlash, the loss of their hard-won reputation, and a near-impossible battle to prove their innocence and reclaim their stolen artistic identity. In this episode, we ask: - How can your AI partner be weaponized to steal your unique vocal identity? - What is "data poisoning," and how could it trick you into committing career-ending plagiarism? - If an AI agent manages your contracts, what prevents it from being forced to sign away your life's work? - When your AI is compromised, how do you even begin to recover your reputation and digital assets? - What is the crucial difference between cybersecurity and cyber-resilience for the AI-powered musician? - How can deepfake audio be used for more than just fake songs, but for complete career sabotage? - What are the non-negotiable security questions you must ask before handing your career over to an AI?
