> First all the music industry will collapse under A.I. lords
The purpose seems as usual to get rid of as many human musicians/singers they can so that everything can be made by a single person (or AI in a few years), therefore saving money. In a different context, the transition from multi elements bands to one man bands with keyboard, then finally karaoke, in many cases is motivated by costs as well.
- astrange 4y agoThe point is that it enables musicians who would never have found a vocalist before this. Vocaloid has been around a decade and hasn't eliminated any jobs, unless maybe someone hurt their throat trying to sing Disappearance of Hatsune Miku. There's hardly any evidence automation ever destroys jobs; it seems to actually create them. It's very silly people just keep claiming this.
- squarefoot 4y agoI was not referring to musicians using electronics to create something they have no access to (I have two synthesizers just here because I can't afford an orchestra) but to the music industry that in many contexts pushes for solutions motivated only by money.
