AI music, let’s discuss the elephant in the room

[Mike]

It started rather innocent with a clever track or two using Johnny Cash’s voice. But today, AI is creating fictitious artists producing entire albums with convincing voices and songs.

I am unsure where I stand on this issue. On one hand, I know it’s not real. On the other hand, I enjoy the music. The conflict is real.

Regardless of where you stand, there is no denying AI music is here to stay.

Whats next? A keyboard with a swift key to generate new songs with the voice of Taylor Swift?

I’d need a different keyboard.

I haven't heard that much AI music. I listened to your first track, it's alright, but the vocals lack emotion. Will we hear songs with vocals like Marvin Gaye, Let's Get It ON or Adell, Set Fire To The Rain? There's infinite example but you probably get what I mean.

I know very little about it, I wonder who would get royalties or credit, etc.?

I liked the story about a guy who created AI music, uploaded it to a streaming service, created AI bots to "listen" to it, and then collected the revenue generated from the listens.

Thankfully I have a substantial library of physical media......

Are you sure this music was made by IA ?

I thought that in the not-too-distant future, only art would distinguish us from AI and be the fingerprint of our humanity... But not even art? look at those strange yet magnificent videos...

It’s fascinating to me.

I remember discussions about sorta this type of thing when synthesizers became popular way back. The shock that something else (fake synth) could sound like a violin etc.

To me if you enjoy it - what difference does it make? To me, AI music has yet to have the emotion. But I’m sure that’s just a matter of time.

Yes, it obviously hurts the artists out there. And I feel for them. However. Computers in their whole existence have cost people in various industries their jobs as time goes on. And also they have created jobs in IT.

The whole tech conundrum continues.
