Michael TharringtonNot long ago, I discovered the AI art generator, Midjourney, and wrote the following post:
Exploring this app got me wondering what the future of AI might hold for music. Luckily, I chanced upon was delivered via algorithm a YouTube video that wondered the same:
Along with this video, I read an article about the recent Beatles documentary, Get Back that talked about how they used machine learning to enhance and restore audio from the old 60's footage used in the doc. Peter Jackson noted in interview that they were able to teach the AI what Paul and Johns' voices sound like so that they could remix things more cleanly. It's pretty amazing stuff!
So, my questions to y'all are pretty open-ended:
- What do you think the future of AI holds for music?
- Have you come across other interesting resources talking about this subject?
- How far off is AI created music... and what does that look like anyway? Do you think AI will be composing completely fresh music or do you think AI will be copying the styles and voices of past musicians?
