I think there’s something very interesting. Going to happen with the AI music, creation, tools in the future and how they affect the music business. There’s a special quality to something that’s created by a human being the variations and timing and something that’s created with an emotion or a feeling is going to resonate more than something that’s created from an AI source that’s only replicating everything it’s been trained on in the past. It’ll be too perfect sounding. It will be too structured and lack emotion. It’s not that the music will be bad with AI, It just won’t be believable. There won’t be that feeling and emotion there to keep the listener involved. It may be a nice groove, but the human element will be missing and that will only last for a while with people. There are people that won’t notice, but then there are people that definitely will notice the impersonal nature of an AI created piece of music. Have you ever watched a movie and the storyline was just not believable, the actors weren’t selling it or they weren’t very good in general. It’s kind of like that where you know the movie you’re watching is fiction and it’s too obvious where you can’t get involved in it. I generally prefer watching documentaries or things that are true to life or something that actually happened or is related to a true story to put some human feeling into it. I understand that not everyone’s going to feel this way, I say do what you love and listen to what you like. My point is I don’t think AI is going to take over making music and when AI music floods streaming services like Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music they’ll be a system in place to separate music made by humans from AI music. I envision a setting on on streaming services that says something like “show AI songs” that can be turned on or off. Or maybe having a badge to mark songs created only with AI.
