The event featured an eminent panel of speakers, including Dr Zubair Khan, Associate Director, GGSIP University. The colloquium explored the evolving intersection between music, intellectual property rights and technological innovation, particularly focusing on the implications of artificial intelligence in the music industry.

Discussions revolved around pressing issues such as the appropriation and commercialisation of folksongs without adequate recognition or compensation and the nuanced web of rights involving vocalists, lyricists, composers, instrumentalists, and producers in a single musical work.

A key point of deliberation was the growing integration of Artificial Intelligence in music creation, distribution and consumption, which poses novel challenges to existing IP frameworks. The panel highlighted the need for re-examining traditional legal principles to accommodate these technological advancements, while safeguarding the rights of creators and innovators.
