AI MUSIC
Olympic ice dance just entered its AI era
Czech ice dancers Kateřina Mrázková and Daniel Mrázek made their Olympic debut this week.
But their performance stood out for an unexpected reason: part of their music was AI-generated.
Ice dance routines must follow a seasonal theme, and this year it’s focused on 1990s music.
While other teams used real songs from the decade, the Czech duo chose a mix of AC/DC and an AI-made track described as “in the style of 90s Bon Jovi.”
Here’s what you should know:
The duo used AI-generated music in their Olympic routine.
They’ve faced backlash before over lyrics resembling real songs.
The moment shows growing tensions around AI, copyright, and authenticity.
Bon Jovi-ish, legally speaking
The choice doesn’t break any official rules, but it has sparked criticism.
Earlier in the season, the pair also used AI music with lyrics that sounded very similar to existing songs, raising concerns about originality and copyright.
Their Olympic moment is still a major achievement, but the use of AI music has added a new debate about creativity in the sport.
