Hey Chris, it's a dystopian but interesting point of view.
But this is underestimating the profoundly human phenomenon that is music: people want to know about the artists, the back stories and - most importantly - gathering as a small group in a pub or as giant crowds in a stadium to see it played live is more than ever part of the experience.
Music is a social connector and AI won't be able to replace this.
This is exactly what I was going to say. Human connection with an artist and with other fans is a hugely important aspect of listening to music (for me at least) and I just don’t see the sort of advances in AI described here changing that.
I want musicians who write and play their own music from start to finish, but I consider myself old school (not just old). Music is meant to be shared. Interesting article, thank you.
Great read as always Chris! Happy to be a part 🍯
The sweets are always welcome here
Crazy interesting
