> Eventually, to the vast majority of people, old not-autotuned music will sound uncanny or off. Yeesh, what a horrifying thought. Fortunately, I really don't think that will happen. We are exposed to real voices all the time, and we each have one of our own. The "inaccuracies" that autotune obliterates carry character and meaning, and I think there's already the beginnings of a push back against the homogenised corporate sound even beyond the part of the population that never liked it in the first place. It has its place but it's an "effect", not an "improvement", and it can't turn a bad singer into a good one. Maybe some sort of neural hybrid audio thing like the article discusses for graphics could, though...
