Jane Davidson Featured in New Music Publishing Book

Nolan Heimann Associate Jane Davidson is featured in Introduction to Music Publishing for Musicians (Second Edition) by Bobby Borg and Michael Eames, where she breaks down pending federal legislation addressing the impact of artificial intelligence on the music industry.

In her interview, Jane explores how this legislation intersects with existing state Right of Publicity laws, collective bargaining agreements, and court precedent—highlighting both the opportunities and risks of AI integration in the creative sector.

Jane concludes the interview with a powerful reflection:

“AI is a very exciting development with a lot of great potential, but it must be used ethically to enhance our lives rather than harm us. It’s important for talent to receive protection over their creative works and their likeness because we don’t want to lose the human element of art or the commercial viability of original music. At the same time, we should harness the exciting capabilities of AI to generate transformative works that can help us reimagine the boundaries of the intersection of technology and art.”
