Mason acknowledged the evolving role of AI in music but emphasized the Academy's support for human artists.
The Recording Academy has adjusted the eligibility period for the 66th Grammy Awards again, extending it by two weeks to September 15, 2023, after listening to concerns from some members of the music community.

The change benefits the awards process and grants flexibility throughout Grammy season, according to Harvey Mason jr., the Academy's CEO. The schedule has been more irregular since the 51st annual Grammy Awards.
