“Bring Me The Horizon has sparked controversy among fans with their recent use of AI-generated visuals in live performances and merchandise. The band showcased AI-powered effects during a live rendition of “AmEN” in São Paulo, Brazil, where frontman Oli Sykes appeared to transform into a demon on-screen. This move has divided their fanbase, with some praising the innovation while others express disappointment and anger. Critics argue that using AI undermines the work of human artists who have previously created visuals for the band. The controversy escalated when fans discovered AI-generated designs on merchandise, including t-shirts priced at $160. Many view this as a betrayal of human creativity and a step too far in the band’s history of pushing boundaries. The backlash reflects a broader debate in the music industry about the role of AI in art and its potential to replace human artists. Despite the criticism, Bring Me The Horizon continues to defend their use of AI as part of their innovative approach to music and performance.” (Perplexity)
