Berklee staff here, absolutely dumbfounded by how quickly this institution is turning into a corporation that does not care about its employees, but even more importantly, its students. Lucchese is going to ruin this place beyond repair. He and his cronies need to go ASAP.

As a musician and music educator, AI is antithetical to the arts. Shut down generative AI

As a Berklee alum I support this initiative 100%. Generative AI is antithetical to creativity, bad for the environment, and relies entirely on blatant theft. It has no place at an institution like Berklee.

So gross that Suno has any ties to this school and it's teachers. Get it out!

The whole point, the whole reason we connect to music is because it reflects our humanity. Human made music evokes emotions that ai will never achieve because composers pour their life experiences into their work. Why are people trying to pollute the arts with ai slop when there is no need for ai at all? Who is this helping? It’s not “technologically advanced” or “keeping up with the times”, it’s just plain stupid. Music is what it is because of the people who made it. Shame on you Berklee.

Contracting with a generative AI music corporation, especially Suno, whose CEO thinks that musicians no linger “enjoy making music” pathetic, disgraceful and embarrassing, and is a stain on the reputation of Berklee.

I am a current Berklee student and very concerned about this issue, not only for my remaining time at this school but for future generations of students and the legacy of Berklee, as well as how AI presence at Berklee may tarnish my standing as an alum.

AI in the entertainment industry the way it is now is purely a parasite serving to benefit a handful of bootlickers. I've had my eye on Berklee to move forward with my career in music, but am utterly disappointed and will not be attending there as long as this remains an issue.

Hopefully my signature goes through bc it wasn’t the last couple of times I tried. But I’m very displeased with the use of AI at a school like Berklee. In this day and age, where the arts is already under attack enough, I would much rather see the college I attend back its students of the arts and even teach them how to protect their work from AI. I think as students, we didn’t attend this school to be taught how to write an AI prompt or take short cuts, we came here to further our artistry and music education.

I was a student there. Would hate it if this had happened in my time.
