Universal Music Group, Sony Music and Warner Music Group have licensed their catalogs to AI-driven streaming startup Klay, Bloomberg reported, allowing users to remake songs with artificial intelligence. The deals signal major labels' willingness to experiment with AI-based music distribution and new revenue models.

On October 23, 2023, a new licensing regime for Crypto Asset Secondary Service Providers was proposed, aiming to regulate digital asset services more effectively.
