Can You Trust AI With Your Music Contracts? - (Industry Insiders)

AI is showing up everywhere in the music industry — writing emails, summarizing deals, generating marketing plans… and now, drafting contracts.

But just because AI can help with music law, doesn’t mean it should.

---- Presented by LANDR - http://landr.com/otherrecordlabels ----

In this episode, I sit down with Cassandra Spangler, a New York–based music and entertainment attorney, to talk honestly about the growing trend of artists and indie labels using AI tools like ChatGPT for legal work — and why that can quietly put your catalog, your money, and your artists at serious risk.

We dig into:

Why AI-generated contracts often sound legit — even when they’re wrong
The hidden dangers of missing clauses, loopholes, and jurisdiction issues
Why “I didn’t understand the contract” isn’t a legal defense
The lack of accountability, confidentiality, and attorney-client privilege with AI
How artists and labels are using AI the right way — as a starting point, not a replacement

This isn’t an anti-AI episode. I openly talk about how I use AI daily — including for this podcast. But when it comes to contracts, rights, royalties, and long-term careers, this conversation draws a clear line between helpful tools and costly shortcuts.
