AI - Cheating or just evolution?

AI reminds me of steampunk era. Gotta find another profitable area in the - in this case - audio field. Gotta adapt.

They're taking our jobs!!!

Agree about the “time to adapt” part. But steampunk is a science fiction sub-genre, not an actual era, right?

No matter how many decades I used English, I still don't know every definition. I meant the era when steam-based machines became a thing. : )

Arcane animated tv show. I love the look and the steam punk vibe. Well done.

And here we are..is this the end of DAWs and video?
Or just more junk noise and visuals

I don't think so!
I mean, I have access to so much better music than my own, on Spotify, but I still make music.
Nothing has changed for me.

That said, Suno is absolutely amazing.
I guess very soon ppl will have their personal playlists with their own AI generated songs. sharing with each other like ppl are sharing photos on instagram.

I had to try Suno, came up with this Bluegrass song.
Just slightly modified in Reason & mastered through the AI mastering service at emastered.com

My thoughts exactly.

Once we reach a point where AI is unquestionably vastly superior to humans, we will still seek out human artists in the same way we still value photorealistic art despite vastly superior cameras

It's no different to the introduction of jukeboxes. Sure, we now can play music from the greatest bands from any time period (except the future, of course, ... although I'm sure AI will do its best ), but you still see people turning up to see bands and artists perform live (even when their performances are known to be shoddy).

This is also a game-changer for sampling.

Imagine beatmakers having practically free access to unique Motown-grade recordings, but also the ability to orchestrate AI bands to create a desired style.

I think the musician will be able to take an idea and carry it out in minutes.
For example, sing into a computer microphone and the voice will sound like it was recorded on the best microphone in a professional studio.
Make a beat-box using the mouth and say, turn it into Led Zeppelin drums or whatever.
Pick up an unplugged electric guitar, play a riff into the computer's microphone and say, pantera style.
Then make a ping-pong of ideas with the AI and shape the music until it sounds satisfactory, all within minutes. What's missing in music today is this flow.
This will help create a certain distance between the artist and the work. Sometimes it takes so long to complete a project, and we get so immersed in it, that we start to think it's all rubbish. Ai will make things fresh.

Well...
