While I agree with sentiment - it's a slippery slope. At what point does "training" stop. Is sampling an instrument "training"? Is trying to mimick other artists/instruments via electronic means (i.e. Autotune) "training"? Pandora's box is open and there is no way of closing it - besides consumer preferences.
- BadHumans 3y agoYou're being obtuse on purpose. Is sampling an instrument training an AI? No it's not. Is autotune AI? No it's not.
- warkdarrior 3y agoHa, ha, this is the perfect loophole. My not-AI music system will imitate your voice by sampling instruments in just the right order and with the right timing. It's only sampling instruments!
- dorkwood 3y agoHow did you get it to sample those instruments in just the right order and with the right timing?
- postexitus 3y agoExactly - how will the law define what the training is and what a carefully composed sequence of event is? You need legal definitions - cannot just say "oh yeah sampling is not training"; whereas it is training of a sample size 1.
- dorkwood 3y agoYou're both missing my point, which is that the original poster's "not-Ai music system" would have still needed Ai at its core in order to replicate human voices with tiny instrument samples. How else would it know what the voices are supposed to sound like?
