AI is not even the future of anything, much less music imo. As I experience it in every day life, technology is actually taking over as is and the end result is much lower quality workmanship no matter what field. Nowadays everyone can feel like a genius researching google for whatever. Problem is that kind of knowledge was given instead of learned. Big difference. Meaning any one can act as knowledgeable as any other but without doing any of the real work to get there. And in the end it always shows in the quality of the work that is undertaken. If you really know enough from experience, you will put out a good product. If you think you know enough because you googled it, your product will sadly reflect your short comings. As an example, we just got our kitchen remodeled and it was amazing to see how many workers used their cell phone WHILE working. It resulted in endless mistakes being made. What a sorry time we are entering when we think technology will help us. There are obviously good uses for it, but in general it is setting us back big time. Just my two cents.
AI and the future of music
Last night’s 60 minutes featured a deep look at Google’s new AI program BARD. Frightening, yet compelling.
It got me thinking, if their AI has already read everything on the internet, and can create verse, stories, etc in seconds…What could it do for music?
‘Hey , BARD create a new Beatles like song from the Rubber Soul era, but have Paul Rodgers and Jack Bruce singing”.
“Hey BARD, create a song that will melt the heart of my new girlfriend”.
your ideas?
