Musicians to lose 25% of income to A.I.

[Illuminati]

I feel like the artists are... at the very least, prepared for this because ever since the iTunes peak they've been making less money every year. It's been known, that's why everyone does brand deals and the money either comes from that or from touring. Luckily AI can't replace those

 

I also think that there will always be a desire for human involvement when it comes to art. You can hang a bunch of ikea / walmart canvas art on your walls but it won't make your house an art gallery.

I didn't even know AI music even existed, let alone that people consumed it. What a sad state of affairs. What's the point of art if you don't get the point of view of the artist?

It's generally background music to videos or ads. Those songs are usually simple and basic. Some artists made a living of selling those but with AI those will be gone. 

But to be honest I think those artist will learn no adapt to the new environment and still make a living. Just not in that branch.

Fortunately, it will never be able to replicate or produce material to the extent Nicki Minaj can - wordplay & lyricism interweaving triple entendre, cultural references, & context cues that often rely on a specific method of delivery. 
 

Poor your other faves tho.

an "auto-tuned" voice is still a real persons voice

Yes but also not really, it's still a manufactured and altered vocal that isn't the true representation of that person.

People in favor of AI music using the "it's better anyway" or "autotune existed for decades" or "i want my faves to sing x song" should he banned from this forum of all forums.

 

You all can have the giggles and fantasies in the world but wait till your faves make a fit and stop releasing music altogether because of your reasoning. 

 

Let's see how you like that.

Sis, what is this comment? Even if they all stopped releasing music, that would just give even more space to AI since it would continue to make new songs. But also, there will never be that level of unity amongst people to engage in this sort of unified action. Musicians are not going to stop releasing music. But our faves (except Taylor) are releasing super rarely anyway so it's not like it makes a big difference. Like when was Adele's last album like 6 years ago?

Time for the guillotine for these oligarchs that constantly want to suck us dry of EVERY part of human existence 

This is the only way we will ever have peace

The future seems so horrible and discouraging in every aspect...

No? Altered sure but not manufactured. Like, I appreciate the need to be different and edgy but I cannot imagine comparing something made by a human, even if it's a little adjusted to something made by a machine. Where's the emotion? Where's the experience?

[Phaunzie]

ok. Musicians have been combating this for years now. It is why everyone and their mama has a perfume, clothing line and makeup brand.

[applestar]

Hope to see this metric go up 

 

[ScorpiosGroove]

we blame nicki 

[HealerKirby]

It will be for background music like these Youtube compilations

When the chart topping hits of the future are all ad jingles

It's no where near good enough yet. But AI is still in the early stages and for that, it can do quite a lot. I expect eventually the quality will really improve and AI music will take over unfortunately.

A lot of people who listen to AI music prefer the AI generated voices compared to actual human voices. 

 

Plus the lyrics in most songs are basically gibberish anyway, so AI lyrics are not that out of place compared to most pop songs.

yikes imagine openly stating you prefer AI generated voices over real ones

 

some people rly have both bad taste and no shame

To be fair, other than my 2 faves, I listen to mostly AI music. This might be just my personal preference.

yikes 

[Soda Pop Queen]

Hopefully many musicians with some pull can form like Voltron to cut this devilry off at the knees. Go to capitol hill to try to get most of this useless A.I. **** banned.
