> Or if you’re a musician who has a career? If you are a genuine new talent, the next Hendrix, then you'll have unique content to offer, and maybe things will be even brighter for you sa you stand out above a soup of algorthmic sameness. But if you're a cookie cutter muso who mainly derives from other people's stuff then yeah, might be time to find a new gig (to make money at anyway).

Please take the time to read about how he got started as an artist and see if you still hold your views. A major avenue for younger artists to grow will soon be done for. Anyway others have said, it wouldn’t matter his music would now be copied in seconds and he wouldn’t get paid to continue.

Jimi Hendrix could probably never happen again, he’d put out three hit songs and his music, his style would just be ripped off from there ?

  > he’d put out three hit songs and his music, his style would just be ripped off from there If his further work can do easily be extended, it’s commodity. Valuable. But not artistic.

The culture around, and subject of, Hendrix's music (and how his style was so perfect for it) was part of his success. That can still happen in a world of AI... but on the other hand, maybe music isnt the strong message carrier that it used to be.

  It's stronger than ever, but pop is more bland than it's ever been because people want feel-good club music.

Making into a creative field already takes a colossal amount of talent and hard work. Implying everyone except an extraordinary rare talent is essentially worthless anyway is quite a take.

"Unique content" is half an hour away of getting absorbed into whatever AI model you have, which can than crunch out an endless amount of variations on it. The issue with AI art isn't just what it can do, but how insanely fast it is at it. It can start copying you before you have even finished your art piece and it can produce new ones 1000x faster than you, in your style. It already can produce images faster than you can view them and generate text faster than you can read. An AI-Spotify that just streams endless amount of AI music, custom written specifically for you, might not be far away. And that's not going to be the end of it, the next step would be generating unique content from scratch, since AI can be trained on what people are listening too and than predict what might be the next trending thing. I really don't see how one can compete with that as a singular artist in the long run. Some big companies might survive by being the ones that run those AI models, but the individual artist will have so much competition that they won't even be noticed in the first place.
