Award-winning songwriters and composers are set to meet with lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Sept. 21 to discuss protecting the rights of music creators amid a rise in artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

About 30 members of the American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers (ASCAP), a membership association of more than 935,000 songwriters, composers, and music publishers, will meet with lawmakers, the organization announced on Wednesday.
