A.I. music


Possibly of interest: "the current rush to advance generative AI technology could be "spiritually, politically, and economically" corrosive. By effectively removing people, like musicians, from algorithms and tech that create new content, elements of society that were once connections between people are turned into "objects" that become less interesting and meaningful, Lanier explained.

"As soon as you have the algorithms taking music from musicians, mashing it up into new music, and then not paying the musicians, gradually you start to undermine the economy because what happens to musicians now happens to everybody later," Lanier said.

He noted that, while this year has been the "year of AI," next year the world is going to be "flooded, flooded with AI-generated music."

AI isn’t really intelligent. It’s a data mining algorithm. It creates nothing on its own without referencing human work. It just accesses what is already created very well and can assemble it however it is asked to perform.

AI will be primarily a money making tool and whenever money enters the fray, the more of it at stake, the more it will be abused. Think about how negative of an overall force social media has become in society (more so in the future) exponentially magnified in ways we can barely imagine at this stage in the form of AI.

The problem is not the alleged intelligence of A.I. or his alleged lack of intelligence theoretically.

The problem is social and the way people will be pushed in spite of themselves to idolize it willing it or not...

Some temptation cannot be passed over...

Except for saints and geniuses...

 

 

 

 

Indeed you are very right ...

 Saying all that i am not a Jeovah disciple refusing blood to his children or an Amish  refusing a computer... some children will walk and touch and feel to A.I. and see or hear again ... Etc

 

The problem is not A.I. it is the diabolic ways our sicial fabric were perverted by Capitalism from his inception before adam Smith as described by the genius Hayel called " our master to us all " : Bernard Mandeville... Even the wokeness movement is explained  by this genius operating social blueprint published way before Marx and Smith and Freud , in 1705 ina fable and few opuscules forgotten by most but not by some from Adam Smith who plagiarize him to Hayek the founder of neo liberalism school with 8 Nobels in economy ...

The reason is was threatened of be burned on the stakes many times , is that Mandevelille trevealed how must operate social control to make possible richness and more profit ... closing and privatize all charities and prisons  , opening all bordels and casinos ...  Because all private vices makes the collective virtue...

 His analysis of social class make Marx a children at primary school, and his cynism make machiavel look line a praying nun...

He risk deaths and prison because he published what became the capitalism and neo liberalism of today...

 He explain it anticipating Freud unconscious long before him. Mandeville was by profession " a doctor of the soul "  today psychologist ...😁

 

I just published a paper that speaks directly to this subject ("Our Minds, Our Selves: Mind, Meaning, and Machines," forthcoming in Borderless Philosophy 7 later this year). It argues that machines cannot be minds because they lack sentience and community, the two features of embodied beings (human beings) for whom things have meaning and value. Computers certainly can, because they already do, create poems, artworks, stories, music, even jokes. But such products become valuable and meaningful (become "art," if you like) only in a complex process of reception. The essay is fairly technical, regarding both computer engineering and philosophy, but I'd be happy to provide a PDF to anyone who might be interested. DM me if you'd like to take a look.
