At a couple of months from 80 I refuse to immerse myself in this issue other than brief forays. I’ve been technologically intrigued since childhood but at this stage in the game I’ve bowed out. For me AI = Ain’t Interested. Our love of Americana, Blues and old school country allows us via Spotify and YouTube to live in a bubble that includes more of the music we love than we could ever listen to in toto. As far as our J&B productions go we’d rather enjoy the fortunate thousands of Spotify plays our songs receive than worry about AI music. It’s nice knowing folks other than family and friends enjoy our efforts. Money? We are far from wealthy but could care less about income from our music. Over the year or so we earned a whole $218 from streaming. Caveat. We don’t disparage those who enjoy and benefit from many aspects of AI. And FWIW we completely understand the potential dangers of it particularly regarding all things related to music production. And given the amount of the economy invested in it we understand that if the AI bubble bursts it will cause an enormous recession. OK back to listening to a well curated playlist or two of great human music. 😀 Songs that for us exude soul in narrative, instrumentation and vocals.
