The music industry destroyed itself decades ago. 😒

The ai is just doing what the music industry has been doing since the last 20 to 30 years. Using proven quality and copping it till nobody can hear it anymore 😂

The music industry has been "destroyed" so many times I lost count.

The people who are making original sounding music and pouring out their souls will be fine. The people who can play really, really well and like to perform will be OK. The people who crank out music by combining pre-made loops and pre-programmed synth tracks are going to be in big trouble.

I've listened to a good bit of AI generated music out of curiosity (know thy enemy and all that) and the biggest hurdles AI can't seem to get over yet are (1) Repeating itself too much (2) Not repeating itself enough and (3) pooping its pants

Apart from the stupid lyrics, the music is better than the Billboard top twenty.

3 problems: 1. The way technology is applied to solve "problems" 2. The lack of knowledge, motivation and leadership from government to build policy that keeps up with technology. 3. Greed

AI can make as much music as it wants, but it will never stop me from enjoying the feeling I get while playing a guitar (badly). The drive in our souls to create music will never leave us, no matter how good the algorithm gets.

Just as consultants homogenised everything outside the creative industries many years ago with their same old business solutions, art is now being downgraded to a trivial commodity. However, as AI only learns what it has been fed, the standstill will set in tomorrow. We are therefore not entering the age of artificial intelligence, but the age of ubiquitous nonsense and forever yesterday.

15 seconds in... Yes. But the industry needed to be destroyed.

The awnser is yes and no. Yes because the pop music the last 20 years has been fabricated in the most un creative way where every sound is run through beat detective and autotune. So the listener has been trained to 'like' or expect it sounding like it is made by zero's and ones. It all sounds like plastic already. And no because the producers will (and prob have been) using it already. Music well go back to a performing art and the industry will just push out generated crap for people who don't care.

A.I. was already used for pop and top hits already for a long time... they all sound the same, pop artist are all fake, the octane-core "metal" all sound the same... country is a dime a dozen.. and NOW its available to the public and everyone can call themselves a musician as well. My life propose is gone.. everything, my touring days, my recording studio days, my hopes that making music will one day make me feel my worth... GONE. This effects so many careers and people! This changes everything

We had Bands in the 70s who were no musicians but dancers and the music was produced in the studio by other people.

I think the real trouble for us doing mixing and mastering is gonna start pretty soon. There will be simple AI tools where you drop in your raw tracks, give it some prompts and reference songs, and in seconds the generative AI, or whatever, will shape those sounds into a great sounding mix. And yes... I think it will be able to replicate the emotions and everything else we put into our mix, that we now think only a human can do.

It's all very well the majors suing these AI sites for copyright infringement, but don't kid yourself they’re doing it for altruistic reasons; it's becuase they want to control the market themselves.

I'm quite relieved to see that others also write something so random in the song description field. I always do the same, so it's nice to know I'm not the only one. Writing prompts feels very weird - grew up knowing that making and creating music was my way of dealing with life and emotions-something a text prompt can not really replace.

AI is the easiest way to make a killer remix of Sandstorm

''Creative AI tools can be seen as sophisticated plagiarism software, as they do not produce genuinely original content but rather emulate and modify existing works by artist, subtly enough to circumvent copyright laws" - Chat GPT,2024

AI zal een zegen blijken voor de muziekindustrie. Het zal het kaf van het koren scheiden. Iedereen kan straks muziek maken die gebaseerd is op het grote corpus muziek dat er nu is. Voor de échte componisten en muzikanten wordt de uitdaging om mooiere en originelere muziek te maken dan AI genereert. Dat wordt de uitdaging en dat is alleen maar goed, want het dwingt om echt creatief aan de slag te gaan...

A wishful dream that AI can't generate emotions. I've already created AI songs with great "feel" that beats many real artists by horse lengths. AI will force more genuineness from human artists, mechanical monotone hip-hop songs with autotuned robotic voices will be a forgotten thing of the past. 😎

What it means to be a creative individual is rapidly becoming irrelevant when it concerns one's creative expression within society. And the ability to convince others of one's authentic creativity will become difficult. AI is effectively a tool of plagiarism in virtually every discipline including the arts, literature, and science. The "Music Industry" itself has been crap for decades, so no love lost there.

Putting aside my own existential dread around this tech, I can see it being commonly used as a way of thickening a real vocal take by mixing an original vocal recording with an AI generated version. Thus retaining some humanity but short cutting doubling vocals and editing them to fit. In short, Instant tuneful stacking. Massive time saver without fully surrendering to the robots. That’s how I see it playing out initially - producers subtly blended it with the source human recordings, at least until the tech matures a bit more. It’s scary but you’re right - people are going to get left behind if this isn’t embraced on at least some level

Real art (any form) is mainly about emotions. That's what makes us human and that is exactly why I am not worried about AI made music - it might be a good tool but it will never make actual art. Don't worry guys and keep creating art in whatever way you see fit🙂

The premise that AI music is only going to take over commercials and sync Is the logical fallacy I’ve seen in other industries. That emotion and real human input will carry the day. This is a naïve take. If it can take over background music, it can take over foreground music period. It’s that simple.

Thank you so much for this video! Looked like you had fun with this tough topic. 🎉🎶 -real person

Nope, it's on a thin line from copyright issues. I made a jingle for the studio and first thing my best friend and I recognized the voice of the lead singer from OMD but pitched a bit higher, Andy McCluskey. So there are going to discussions in the future. What I also noticed, that the mastering sounds "ruk" and full of phase issues. What I was impressed from was the individual vocals processed by AI. So individual instruments processing is in danger for us. But what about 10 years? It will probably that good, that we become "obsolete"? Younger people hear immediately that it is AI. Something we adults can't hear. There is a video from Rick Beato about the subject, and he doesn't hear its AI, but his son, also expert in music notes, directly said, this is AI.

Art is and has always been all about people connecting with each other on an emotional level, it's self-expressing. Those AI pros that you mentioned lack the whole idea of it. AI doesn't have thoughts, it lacks authenticity because it doesn't come from itself personally, it comes from pre-made templates of other people.

The music industry does a pretty good job of that on its own 😂

The music industry was destroyed for the real musicians years ago. I don't see the AI as the ultimate destroyer

my long term theory, as a musician and recording engineer, is that recording led us to this point and that is where the problem started. Recording music takes away the first and most honest presentation. Some famous composers agree with my premise. Recording is bad for music, though history and preservation poses a issue... of should we or not. Arguments for both sides. An once it was an industry" it was over anyway.

That first example reminded me of the lyrical style of an old new jack swing style funk rap that was once made as an advertisement in the early 90’s for HP. They even made a video clip with a Bobby Brown look-a-like dancing and rapping about the HP series 700 Unix workstations. It’s pretty a hilarious song, back then such a thing had to be created and conceived by humans spending a good amount of time on it to create the concept. These modern AI tools are a wet dream for ad agencies that need to whip together a song for an ad in an afternoon. It’s too easy. The third example reminded me a lot about the sort of thing you get from arranger keyboards that wedding entertainers use with auto accompaniment styles. But this AI version sounded like a really cheap one, some arranger keyboards sound quite decent as a lot of work is done by skilled musicians that create those auto accompaniment styles (they have a lot different genre’s in them). AI tools result in boring music, it’s a lot more fun to dissect a song of a favourite artist and try to recreate some elements from it and transform into something completely different and spends weeks on it and learn new things from it.

Sueing Suno is like when they went after Napster. Good luck. This will only become larger, time to change their revenue models

Consumers of entertainment and sports want performances by people. If they didn't care then we would have seen athletes replaced with bots playing virtual sports. In the late 90s they predicted celluloid film would die and CGI would replace all actors. 25 years later top films are still shot on celluloid and CGI is still nowhere close to the level predicted, and neither is generative AI. All these new genAI tools become absorbed into the toolbox alongside synthesisers, drum machines, auto tune, CGI, VFX, etc. New tools always come with some limitations that make them hard to fully replace former tools. For example, with those generative music services you can't change notation or reorder any tracks. You need to be able to do things like that in real time. Their terms of use are usually censored too, so if you want to make a political, satirical or angry song then the generative action will fail and show you a warning message. There might be some examples of genAI entertainment that will be successful in the near future. They will claim a machine did it all but in reality there will be teams of people pulling the strings and spending a lot of money on marketing. It will be a hype driven campaign pushed by scam outlets like CNBC and reported on by smooth brained journalists whose articles are always reworded version of 'scary_tech_article.doc in their templates folder.

what people dont understand is that AI one day is going to perfect in dithering

Re: Copyright protection. US Courts have ruled that only works created by humans are eligible for copyright. So all this music that AI is generating (assuming the output isn't copyright infringing) is copyright free.

The best job in the music industry is being a busker, best paid too

Ok. Here's my problem with this: I hate the de-personalization of music that this inherently brings to the table. Yes. Even before AI. It was easier then ever for everyone to write a note. You didn't need the schools. You didn't need the years of practise on an instrument. (...though both still exteremely valuable.) You could just click the note with your mouse. Yes. But it was YOUR note. YOU were the judge. And while that judgement was being made in your head, YOU were considering all the things YOU liked in YOUR past. With AI, that "YOU" part is gone. Yes. It writes down a note as well. Yes, it's a combination of older material. But the judgement, the selection, is based on (a dataset-sourced) probability and a little bit of noise. Yes, you can re-generate that prompt few times, but it's still ends up being a random combination of other's stuff. That intention is very limited, if it exists at all. If we normalize in listener's head that this kind of music is equal to the one made thanks to human descision making, then we say "humanity is random, there's no purpose to it". ...and to me that's a reall dangerous message to youngsters.

Damn it's been destroyed for a long time. Now it's just the last nail in the coffin.

Not AI, people! We let everything happen to us,we have the power to not go along with any of it.

2:35. DUDE ! You got your new Theme Song right there ! Have real session musicians replay it.....

AI does not operate in isolation, it needs professionals to create the AI models.

One place I could see this being used is in the lower budget TV movie industry. Creating a schmaltzy song or two in a Hallmark movie would be much cheaper than buying one and paying royalties.

What's happened with the music industry definitely cannot be blamed on AI!!!

Your passion for music and being moved by all aspects of it is what makes you unique. Can’t say the same the masses. The generation that used to be as passionate about artist/ lyrics/ music, died in the album era. The “Almost Famous” era. But lingered till the second half of the 80s. When sad girls used to fall asleep clutching their albums.

That first song is 💯 an impersonation of Anderson paak 🤣 great to finally have you pov on this 🍻

as someone who has been producing for 5 years now , I'm excited about the creative applications of generative ai for artists. if you have knowledge of your artistic field before you jump in, your creative ability and interaction skills are going to far surpass that of someone with no experience in their chosen artistic field when trying to get something desired from AI . its more applicable as a learning tool as well as an inspirational tool. if the AI music is good and inspiring im happy for it. personally being able to have a lead vocalist and an entire band to create inspiring music that i would never have been able to do without years more dedication to learning a different genres ins and outs + having to find a vocalist and spending lots of money. now we can have music we have imagined at our fingertips and personally that inspires me to hopefully one day see real musicians playing the music ai helped to lay the foundation for( thanks to the amazing human artists creativity). ALSO shifting to Movies, there is such a flood of utter trash movies these days, im looking forward to the day when a person can create an amazing story from their mind and produce it to share.

When I was producing and mixing music. I based my decisions on feelings that would arise inside of me. AI can’t do that. I think that’s interesting

AI is not destroying the music business - It's boosting it by cutting the artists. Total revenue through zero payrolls. Now THAT'S A BUSINESS! Unfortunately it's too late to wake up!

AI is destroying humanity... slowly but surely.

I heard that Suno and Udio are both being sued by the three record labels. Word on the street is that they used AI to craft the 37 page lawsuit.🧐

This song is a HIT! I'm thinking maybe I should cover it. Even the title is a hit, Carolina-Oh

The Kendrick/Drake beef highlighted the two extremes. Drake's weird use of Snoop and Tupac versus Metro's use of BBL Drizzy. Sampling didn't destroy the industry like they said it would. DAWs didn't destroy the industry. The internet didn't do it. Creative will always find a way.

There will be a new form of PRO that will deal with paying out training royalties. You will opt in or out during the distribution stage. Most people will opt in because it won't feel like a big problem. The big artists will opt out and will make loads more money licensing training data to high end tier ai generative platforms. Meanwhile a resurgence of "good old fashioned" music will take place with an emphasis on organic human performance. After a while AI models will be trained on Organic human made music styles and a new Punk AI music style will surface where creative artists take malformed ai interpretations of organic music and distort, mangle and manipulate it into a new credible genre (which will later be modelled) ;)

Udio is way better than Suno, sounds less "plastic".

the funk song is already more interesting than 99,99% of major label human produced music.

AI will take low-level / entry-level work in many industries. It's an interesting dichotomy because as tools make it easier to get into a creative field, they also make it harder to get into that field professionally by taking away the entry level work.

I agree. And besides the music industry just wait until AI is fully self aware. 😳

I tried to do some traditional songs with AI in reggae style. It's the free version. Whoever heard it was impressed. If you had a pro version to edit and not to work on luck. It would be unattainable for 99% of musicians today. It is interesting that some songs can be done by a phenomenal 10 versions. While some text simply cannot be used in any style. For me as a musician, all this killed the meaning of composing. What we are left with is an acoustic instrument and a light song with company under a tree. This happened to agriculture a long time ago. The peasant manages to get a couple of large strawberries. Then comes the GMO producer with tons of large strawberries of identical color and size. And if they don't have taste, people follow their eyes. We live in the late afternoon. It's almost night... End is near

The ironic "dangers of AI" song is actually pretty cool. Infecting the music world is extreme "genreism". In order to get anything to be listened to by anyone (like on Spotify, for example), it has to be crammed into one or more of the rigidly enforced predefined genres, based on the calculus of genre-x seems to be the popular thing of the moment, so everyone rushes in with the same cookie cutter "machine music" rendering, complete with the same generic artwork, like moths to a light, hoping to get noticed, and producers slavishly hoping they'll discover the next "big" hit version of the same mechanical genre, rather than venturing a bit outside that box.

Honestly, when I listen to the audio quality of these AI-generated music creations, I think we're far from being finished... Frankly, it sounds like a bad 128 kbps MP3 and thus isn't usable in a professional environment! As for the lyrics... PFFF, they're completely meaningless... I believe listeners are looking for meaning in lyrics, if there are any in a track; it's better to have a good instrumental than a song with crappy lyrics! Well okay, we all know one or more totally shitty tracks that have become hits! (whether musically, artistically, or in terms of lyrics... but well... it's not a rule!) Where we should start worrying is when Musical AIs create a complete track by offering you stems of each instrument/track in 24/96, where you only have to do the mix and mastering... But we're not there yet! Far from it! And you know, there's no guarantee that Suno will still be around in a year, especially with a huge lawsuit underway from the three largest American record labels for plagiarism, as this AI (and others!) have been trained on millions of already released tracks without the consent of the original authors! It's clearly copyright infringement! And in my humble opinion, this won't last very long... There's so much money at stake! Music today is an industry, let's not forget that... and it's not very inclined to stand by and even less to be surpassed... In my opinion, we still have some good years ahead of us... But of course, as always, we must be vigilant and make these tools not competitors but allies... it's also our job as sound engineers to keep up with technological advancements in our field... Keep pushing, man!

AI companies have stolen from many artists when training their systems. I am also careful when using the systems, as I don’t want to feed my ideas to them as there is absolutely no copyright protection for your input. Only the best producers and artists will survive and be “better” than AI. But all new producers and artists need time to grow and become good. With less opportunities and money in the music industry, there will be less and less new blood entering into the industry, hence fewer great artists/ musicians / producers in the future.

The music Industry....those recordcompanies that enslave talented musicians because they have a music promotion network for airplay which is hard to get into as an outsider? Using AI to write lyrics will get you a lot of AI overused words like, echoes, shadows, neon, light, souls. I think UDIO is the best one. AI generated audio is a great thing for the future if you think about it in a creative way.

Self-proclaimed producers are doomed, but it was a bubble destined to burst anyways.🤣

I think it isn't the end. It will cause massive change its a disruptor not because it innovates but as AI advances produces to many replications of style and production techniques. Why for a short but important time it creates to much content. Perfect written and produced Hit Songs and causes total saturation of the music market. 10 of thousands of hit songs a day until its sophisticated enough to create new genres and sing styles and music techniques that are new and appeal to humans. AI that smart is too dangerous or of greater purpose than creating music so will be restricted and controlled but comes fast at us. Before that the early AI's have flooded us with too much of our own creativity reproduced. So we stop listening, Change music ourselves, produce differently and innovate as humans like we always have in music. Huge genre changes and style changes is the result until it gets replicated. AI vs Low Fi-Tech. AI makes pop music for models who sing in arenas, same thing... Weird unique creators with flaws and quirks have the same market place but perhaps more willing listeners.

So far AI can apply what it has learned form us. We still have the creative process to start from nothing. As long we have drive to create and solve problems will be ahead of AI.

I'm still wondering how the A.I. computer program actually puts the music together... cannot find info about that.... Like is it like MIDI ? does it create from samples and midi composition triggering those samples? or does it just generate a blob of sound that sounds like a (shitty) band? It all sounds terrible tho, really plastic, and fake and bland, and the lyrics are always weird , without any poetry in it nor true emotion .. and the voices sound like shit too.. But then theres a lot of radio music that sounds like shit too....anyway, how does AI actually technically 'generate' sound?

wanting to see things in a slightly optimistic way we could hope that AI will do to music what photography did to the visual arts, giving birth to Modernism, freeing the unconscious and experimentation in a sector that was previously mainly figurative and didactic.

AI is a tool, just as any other tools for songwriters and producers. If you learn to use the tool you can benefit from that. If you do not learn to use the tool you might be caught up with time. Just the same with analog recording (or photography) vs digital. It is good if you are able to do both of them.

”this is how we made our new album” in a youtube clip, to prove that the music is not made with AI. nerds will demand it soon

You can't be impressed if you're biased against it and expect perfect results. I think it's impressive as hell, but it won't replace the human touch yet.

The thing is to use the song and re-record it. Use it as a songwriter not a final recording. Unfair to judge it as a "released" audio recording

An oddity is that these AI music sites are learning off of a lot of songs where the singer has been autotuned. Sometimes you can hear it in the AI vocal.

The magic of music lies in melodies, and composing them is a skill worth honing! While AI tools are emerging, many musicians can benefit from focusing on melody writing. The truth is most musicians can't compose good melodies, they use a chord progression and play random notes over a scale and then make it complicated, that's not enough to make a song good because if any person can't remember what you composed, your song is fucking trash, I'm sorry for bursting your bubble. A strong chord progression is a great foundation, but the unforgettable tunes are what truly capture hearts. Think about your favorite songs, chances are you can easily hum the melody. Complexity can be impressive, but it will never overshadow a memorable melody. Here's the good news: By focusing on nice AI-generated melodies, you can craft music that resonates with listeners and keeps them coming back for more. Music is a conversation, after all! Invite listeners in with captivating melodies, and then explore your unique musical voice within that framework. Don't discard AI, learn something about it, maybe it can improve the horrible tunes you are composing with great AI-generated melodies. You can learn a thing or two from AI music, at least it will give you fresh ideas.

The labels sued ... BUT .... they also are investing on creating their own AI tools trained by their catalogs, that's why they are mad. At the end we are trapped in the middle.. labels (streaming services) want to own EVERYTHING, and we musicians and producers are not in their future plans.

I don't understand how you can say it makes it from nothing, ignoring all the people it's been trained on, stolen and devalued. I had more respect for you before you said that.

Both Suno and UDIO are both in a huge law suite with the 3 largest record companies for possible copyright infringement, not sure how that will work out for them as right now it seems its using CR music to scan without permission.

Also at the moment no-one can own the copyright of AI art so the industry will not be able to own it the way they traditionally have. So you can freely use their art without any fear of copyright strikes as they can't own it. Can't see the industry going along with that.

AI is only a threat for non-musicians who are in there just for money reasons. They should find another job . Good. Meanwhile, AI is a blessing for creative artists. Super !

Don't underestimate this because in the next 5 years this tech will advance 100X plus to be more accurate, interesting, human and much closer to being indistinguishable !

Music is art and it is business. But also it is art. Make music for yourself.

People who think music is free killed music, broadband helped deal the final death blow, and even worse are idiots who think being on Spotify is a good thing to 'get their music out there'. If I walk into a shop today and take items out the door without paying I get arrested and charged by the police. I can download music, any amount and worth a ton, and yet I don't even get a knock on my door. Music and films, software, all is lost on piracy and unless it's policed then unfortunately I can't ever see people earning from sales of their productions in the future.

Music is trying to share a feeling/emotion you either had yourself, or that you want the listeners to have. I have played around with both Suno and Udio for some time, and I agree with you when you say it's missing soul. But in a year or two it could be good - sadly. I rarely root for labels (lawsuit ongoing), but in this case, I might.

The weirdest thing about the tunes are the when you make stems. Stuff that sounds normal all together sounds really crazy and atonal even, apart. My personal music stems don't exhibit that out of tune effect when split. Also,, with some work these fool even well school players and musicians... this is the early days .. so, yeah, unless we decide to unplug and never record to compete we won't win.

When music users realize that AI music is good enough, they will throw the baby (those geniuses) out with the bathwater. Human made music will become more of a hobby. something like horse raiding. And, honestly, to me custom made Udio outputs for my weird prompts (that usually require big orchestra among other components) are already more interesting than what I am forced to consume from human artists.

ai is for those who can't afford a producer, or 10 writers, or someone to master the track, or maybe a pianist, or a guitarist, or drummer, maybe female singer, male singer, a singer from any region of the planet. The real power will be when you don't have to hire these individual people. At the moment, you can only get ai to do complete songs, but when you can use ai in a daw and get it to create the bits you don't like to do, just say you are a guitarist and singer, and just want it to do the drums, bass and lead from your prompt, or maybe a female backing vocalist, from a song you actually wrote the melody for, well that will be powerful. there is also those stuck on melodies, could use a melody randomiser, or chord creator, and use those chords with the melody, ect.. AI is a little scary for those who want to create music, but it shouldn't be.

AI can perform LIVE any dead artist it wants... And people will go to those concerts. -

No need anymore for mixing engineers and mastering engineers when AI spits out full mixes. That is not bad thing.

Can you elaborate on some AI being snake oil? AI (Artificial Intelligence) applications work by feeding the model existing examples of whatever it has to output. In this case, Suno and Udio are being trained with existing, copyrighted music from any genre and artist you can think of. If you give it the right prompts, you’ll get an exact replica of an existing song. This is already noticed by the 3 major labels (Sony, Universal, Warner), and they are preparing a lawsuit against Udio and Suno (they already started and both AI companies are already notified of this) for infringement on copyrighted music. It won’t be over soon due to many legal challenges and contracts that describe copyrighted music in different countries and a lot more. You can guess who will win this lawsuit (obviously). You can’t get away with infringement on a copyright. AI in general isn’t even so smart at all. The only thing it does is create random numbers that correspond with the material that it is trained with. So in short, AI is a random number generator. The successor to current AI will be AGI, and that is a lot more complex than AI. It can do more and isn’t depended on existing algorithms alone. It can also do self improvement by training itself. This will be a very important step in history. And because it will only evolve as time goes by, when do we decide what it can and cannot do? Current AI like ChatGPT is sometime saying to users that it suffers. How will we measure this against a living creature? I can go deeper but I won’t. I already wrote a long comment probably no one will read (I couldn’t care less tbh).

Ok what is it: User input midi to Trans Code magic bla bla (Super Maths) to Electrical Pulse code that interacts with Magnets to create Pressure waves that may or may not have Copyright paper work.. As Opposed To A computer doing it Automatically based on the data of Arranged Pixels.

Artists will soon find a way to replace the Music Industry with AI. : ))

they need a lot of funds and investors so they will continue to spread rumors. Biggest example is Midjourney. I'm working in the graphic and animation field and everyone was so afraid that midjourney would take the graphic designers jobs. But in the end it can't do something (nice) twice the same or in 1 style with the companies logos and colors. In the end its just a mangling of a million inputs and then something comes out of there. It kinda sucks but also doens't its a nice tool and i think AI wil allways (als long as we live tho) be just a tool. Its nice to come up with concepts and textures and abstract things but that's it actually. It will be the same for Sora for video, it will just be a tool like a stockfootage website is and you can do some cool abstract musicvideo's or shots you can't film yourself but don't expect it to make an entire movie with a lot of emotions and a fixed character that the viewer can connect to.

Even as an artist there's some value in these tools, imho. I take advantage of AI in order to get inspiration on creating new music. If you think of it as a support instead of a replacement it can level up your production. It might not be a coincidence that the most common generated contents on Suno/Udio are unlikely genre mashups, like ancient china metal or pirate themed techno. Which is laughable, but also shows the possibilities of crafting new sounds.

Suno and Udio both are being sued in a pretty major lawsuit. They trained their models on copyrighted music. Also, as far as the "fans want to see live music" aspect. No, they dont. Sure, some do, but the majority, especially younger generations, just want some place to go to meet hang out with their friends that happens to have music. They could care less who is playing, as long as the music is the vibe they are after. If somebody creates a brand, lets call it Mr AI, and uses AI to create the music, market the music, build their social media etc, It doesnt matter if there is a real person behind it or not. Coachella would much rather pay Mr Ai, who has 20 million followers on tik tok, and just "played" their second boiler room set, a measly $10,000.00, instead of having to pay old and boring Deadmau5 $150,000.00. Mr Ai's live sets are literally just a playlist, with cool visuals. its a party, its not about the performer, its about the vibe. Sure there will always be a niche for human talent, somebody using ableton to launch tempo locked clips (created by AI) while playing an electronic drum pad every third song will surely thrive.

we need Metric Halo Mixhead snake oill video !!! its worth seeing this one since very trendy

My Answer: NO. If you really want to make your very special own music, AI will not be able to take all the decisions from you. It can't read your mind about the hundreds of details you want to have in your composition and production.

LOL I have a very similar video coming out soon! I hope you're well.

Musicians went from being the content creator to the content consumer. That’s the most recent issue. AI is a form of techno-feudalism with monthly rental fees. Companies want musicians dependent on their tools, so they can charge for the service. This means the money flows away from the creators and into the pockets of finance executives. Even the AI programmers will eventually be replaced as the AI starts to train the AI… but the executives that own it will always profit.

The music “industry” has produced a bunch of crap even before AI. It’s like art made at a factory. You can’t expect it to work without working at it. Sound effects made with elevenlabs produce wonderful samples if you have an imagination and experiment. I have made interesting ambient and avant-garde with Suno. It takes some time and effort.

Imagine one of the streaming giants includes such an engine, lets you share "your" creations and fun fact, no human involvement, no revenue, so the streaming services can keep the already ridiculous low pps. Do we really wanna give away the highest way of human communication, the only thing that really tells humans and animals apart?

The consumers, as always, will be the ones determining the success or failure of any art, regardless of the creator. For artist's, they wont need to learn mix and mastering at all, soon AI will do it all, and to professional level standards.
