robot lips are pretty poor. They exist, but not at the point of making brass/wind instruments practical. most other things can be operated adequately by robots

robot lips are pretty poor. They exist, but not at the point of making brass/wind instruments practical. most other things can be operated adequately by robots. But then, you're better off with either synthesisers or direct genAI synthesis. However I do wonder what the point of offloading the distillation of human emotion to robots is. The whole point of music is that it contains what someone _feels_.
