This is so real. I was so pissed when I found out some latest Afro beats songs were AI generated. It really proves the point of what music is becoming

i agree with you, lammy. art has a way of appealing to us even through screens.

ai is a tool, and nothing more. true art requires effort and creativity.

With you on the heart of this — the human is the whole point. My angle: the tool, held with discernment, doesn't replace the maker; it can become a forge for them. Either way the soul is the person.

“You’re hiding behind AI because you no longer want to put effort into developing actual creative direction. That’s the real issue for me.”

AI saves money.

“Music is emotional. It is spiritual. Cultural. Human. Messy. Layered. Textured. And it’s not supposed to feel overly optimized all the time. The imperfections are part of the experience.”

It is also a business that needs to make money. No one is stopping people from being artistic however they want on their own time; but the music business is more about entertainment and $ then art.
