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?

Well, it’s not like anyone has a time machine and can go back in time to kill the person who was inventing the Hurdy-Gurdy.

Or the “Jews Harp.” MAN those are annoying…

Reminds me of a story about Keith Jarrett’s air of superiority about not using a “synthesizer” as it was beneath his dignity as a REAL musician.

Harpsichord makers wept.

Fact is, AI’s can, do and will create music insofar as we have a functional anthropocentric definition of the verb “to create” and some bigots will forever exclude anyone or anything’s contribution to music if that entity doesn’t meet certain specific criteria in THEIR minuscule excuses for a mind.

Change is a funny thing. Evolution is a funny thing. Creation too is “funny” whether that’s funny ha-ha or funny OMG! is up to the listener/consumer.

Oh, I know, let’s pass a LAW that ONLY human-created music is MUSIC and can be copyrighted and money earned therefrom.

buggy whip makers wept when Henry Ford’s Model T’s began rolling off assembly lines. It was much too late for protectionism. Should we still have horse/buggies instead of ICE automobiles?

FWIW.

Chatter among yourselves.

You judge people very harshly and very rapidly...

I own a computer and i am not a Amish...

But you completely dont understand what is at stake...

You think that A. I. is like a can opener or a computer...

And you think that music is a set of organized sounds , nevermind the spirit behind...

I will not repeat all my posts here...

If you qualify me as a "bigot" who use prejudice as an "excuse for a mind" ; you are the perfect sleepwalker, and you dont even know what is "progress", and it is not technologically related AT ALL...If you think so then you are like the Spaniards killing Indians and aztecs as sub humans because they were technologically inferior ... Progress is only MORAL...After this murders century with machine progress we learned this...

And what is at stake here with A. I. the scientist who created the neural networks mathematical design , Geoffrey Hinton himself , think the same as those you called "luddites" or "bigots"...In a word , our sleepwalking corporate controlled society is not ready for this "tool" which is not a tool at all...

And no, Beethoven and Scriabin cannot be replaced by machines , guess why in your "vast" progressive mind ? It is because their musical choices were not only inspired by the past set of sounds but they were ethical choices , expressed VALUES, no machine can emulate...Beethoven is not musak ascensor music... Science cannot decide for us about values and freedom..

But believe me, the day A. C. will come , artificial conscuiousness , and it will be sooner than later, way over A. I. , you will begin to understand WHY A. I. is not a mere tool and why applauding for the progress is to be sleeping ...

And you will begin to understand what a "soul" is...

The soul is connected and grounded in a universal infinite information field... A. C. cannot be grounded in an infinite field as all living interconned entities from primitive cell to over humans...

The mathematics behind A. C. is already here... It is way over neural network maths... But it is grounded in a finite number of primes...

Read the Book : Nanobrains by anirban... You see , i am a very informed "luddite"... Perhaps you are a "retarded" transhumanists ?

😊

This article will explain to you why there must be an "information field" :

And this video will explain to you the relation of this information field with time itself :

After that you will begin to undeerstand why we cannot replace life by machine, even by " artificially conscious machines"...

And yes intelligence and consciousness dont coincide at all and A.C. is and will be captive of this material universe with "no soul" or no spiritual connection to the universal informative field... I call it the "source" some call it God... It is the same... Then creating A.C. would be a great spiritual burden... The movie "Blade Runner" is no more impossible science fiction...

 

it is not necessary to thank me...

The 60 Minutes segment on Google's new AI program BARD was truly thought-provoking. The capabilities showcased are both astonishing and a bit unsettling. Considering its ability to generate content across various domains, the potential impact on music is intriguing. Imagine the fusion of AI with the essence of legendary eras, like the Beatles from the Rubber Soul era. It could revolutionize music creation, blending the familiar with the novel. And as for crafting personalized, heartfelt songs, having AI assist in capturing emotions could be an innovative way to convey feelings. However, the challenge lies in maintaining the authenticity and human touch that music brings. It's an exciting prospect, but striking the right balance will be crucial.

It's interesting to have music, and the choice for an apk app about online music.
