In recent days, "AI singing voice" videos recreating Trinh Cong Son's compositions such as "Diem Xua" and "Ha Trang" in rock style have gone viral on social networks.
For example, the version of "Diem Xua" performed by AI on the YouTube channel "yanc Tinh AI" earned more than 831,000 views after 3 weeks of posting on YouTube. The song "Ha Trang" sung by AI in rock ballad style attracted 757,000 views after 2 weeks.
Appearing at a recent event, singer Trinh Vinh Trinh - the younger sister of musician Trinh Cong Son - shared with Lao Dong reporter about AI singing Trinh's music in Rock style.
She said: "I find it very good. But I also have concerns, because I find it so good, when AI sings Trinh's music in rock style, the way he expresses and performs the song is also very good and touches my heart. I am also concerned about how it will affect the development and creativity of real singers. As for AI technology, I am not well-versed.
When asked about the copyright issue of Trinh Cong Son's music songs performed by AI, singer Trinh Vinh Trinh said that the copyright issue will be handled by the center, because his family is not in charge of this field.
The phenomenon of AI songing Trinh in a Rock-style has caused much controversy in the Vietnamese music industry. Some opinions say that this is a new, creative direction that helps Trinh's music reach young audiences.
However, many people expressed concern that the voice and emotions from AI cannot be compared to humans, especially with the work of Trinh Cong Son, which stands out for its depth of soul.
Big questions are being raised: As AI is increasinglyengthening its role in the fields of composition and performance, will the artistic value, personal mark and emotions of artists be overwhelmed? And how to clearly distinguish between real people and machines? This is an issue that experts believe requires a transparent legal framework and public criticism.
