And at one time people abhorred:
  • Automobiles (Get a horse!)
  • Saxophones (Especially in German bands when saxes were new)
  • Jazz (Devil's Music)
  • Electric guitars (They aren't real guitars)
  • Rock n Roll (Devil's Music)
  • Electric ignition on Harleys (Real men kick start)
  • Disco (Disco Sucks!)
  • Home computers (I'll never have one of those in MY house)
  • Backing Tracks (You're not really playing that)
  • and so on, and on, and on

Those who adapt well will survive, those who don't have more difficulty surviving.

AI is just another tool added to our collective toolbox. AI will be used for good, for evil and for boring stuff too.

I play a Wind Synthesizer. It didn't replace my saxophone, just expanded my expressive capabilities. I play the sax a little less, but it's still my primary instrument. The Rhodes piano didn't replace the acoustic piano, the electric guitar didn't replace the acoustic guitar, and AI won't replace Band-in-a-Box. It's just another tool.

Like it or not, it's here to stay.
