Whilst in Malta, Nas Daily headed on a two-hour trip to Comino to find Salvu and tell his story, the tale of a local legend who lives on the island with his cousin.

In his video, Nas revealed that the 71-year-old Salvu lived on the island his entire life, spending a lot of time flying drones and learning about new technologies. In fact, Salvua actually built a machine to move his boat by remote control, uses solar power to charge his go kart and converted his diesel ATV into an electric vehicle.

The Comino legend revealed that he learns something new everyday, spending time researching online thanks to his super fast internet.

AI-generated Drake & The Weeknd song pulled from streaming platforms

AI-generated Drake & The Weeknd song pilled from streaming platforms

Apr 19 2023

After breaking the internet with its eerily-lifelike characteristics, a song made to clone Drake & The Weeknd’s voices by artificial intelligence is being removed from streaming platforms.

‘Heart On My Sleeve’ was generated by a creator known as @ghostwriter, who went viral around the globe after posting the track to social media. With typically Drake-like lyrics namedropping The Weeknd’s ex Selena Gomez, together with an infectious hook and a trap beat which is not alien to modern pop music, the song took over social media and raised concern about the nature of AI in music and the arts.

Global publishing giant Universal Music Group stated that the song violated copyright law, going on to argue that platforms had a “legal and ethical responsibility” to prevent any harm to artists through these services.

Up to the moment of its removal, the song was streamed just under 630,000 times on Spotify, generating €1,723 in revenue with 0.0027 cents per stream.

As the international creative community continues to raise concerns about the potentially harmful nature of artificial intelligence in the arts, social media platforms continue to experience an influx of AI-generated tracks.

What do you make of this?
