I am sure that people who make a living from the music they create have a reason for concern due to the displacement of income based on AI-generated music. To what extent this is a problem, I surely don't know.

My reason for experimenting with AI-generated music is the same reason I use BIAB. If I had unlimited income, I would have a ton of live musicians to play with, but I would also experiment with new technologies.

I am hoping that Ai can get to the point of providing single tracks based on the musical tracks I create. Not so different than what BIAB does.

I think what many of us want is an electronic accompaniment that functions in a similar fashion to what would happen live with studio musicians.

I think we may not be so far away from that idea.

If I can create a plausible piece of music in 90 seconds with zero experience with this software, all this AI business is moving forward at a logarithmic rate.

The above song and four other very different songs were created only using the prompts New Wave, Piano, Guitar, and Vocals.

What is lacking in all this is for the program to print out the whole thing in standard notation track by track. That would give one the ability to modify the song.

While AI-generated music may be interesting, having human control of the outcome could produce some really good stuff.
