Interesting that you describe making music that appeals to a wide audience as “trying to cash in”.
Would you not say that using an AI to do essentially the same thing, just with the benefit that you don’t really need to pay anyone for creating the art meaning you can target more niche preferences is also “cashing in”?
- CuriouslyC 4y agoNo. I see strong generative AI allowing people who like fun genres outside the mainstream to make music in those genres that sounds good more easily. That will enable a creative explosion as new artists are given a rocket boost and established artists are taken to the next level and made more productive. Generative AI is going to allow an amazing diversification and explosion of art and music, which is going to create the next big AI application once current systems for distributing content are strained to overloading - interactive recommenders. Imagine asking for a piece of content, getting recommendations, evaluating a short clip, giving feedback to the recommender and getting better recommendations as a result in a cycle until you get exactly what you want.
- d1sxeyes 4y agoMaybe I'm a luddite, and I'm not really into technical jazz fusion death metal, but I do like some technical music and some metal music. At least part of the reason I like technical music is because it is challenging to play for the musician. If an AI 'plays' 'technical' music, it loses its appeal for me. Similarly, a lot of the reason I like metal music is because of the emotion and energy poured into it by the human creator. Being able to ask a computer make noises which sounds like some musicians you like is not, in my opinion, the same as creating art.
