This comes after McCartney and his fellow surviving Beatle Sir Ringo Starr used AI to extract the late John Lennon’s vocals from a demo left behind, to create a new song Now and Then. The song has been billed as The Beatles’ very final song and enjoyed critical praise on its release in 2023, nominated for two Grammy Awards.

The Beatle calls on the government to reconsider proposed changes to copyright law.

Paul McCartney has warned that AI could "rip off" artists if a proposed overhaul of copyright law in the UK goes ahead.
