Reply To: What are your thoughts on AI in the music creative process? Is it good or bad?

[fossile]

long term – if you’re in the business for a livelihood – you’re doomed. the entertainment business has been looking for a way to exploit all the previous works and generate “new” content for as low cost as possible including no commissions, no royalties etc. for, oh, 60 year or so. AI with all the content available to harvest, and some creative prompt writing, will render paid services (besides the prompt writers) to artists and production teams essentially null and void.

short term – become a really good prompt writer.

hobbyist – feel free to use AI. i do (mainly generating performances, not composition – still mainly do composition the hard way).
