  • Lol, why don’t you go fuck yourself you stupid fuck? You haven’t even articulate half the beginning of an idea and yet you feel you can call others idiots? The other user in this comment has been able to explain why he doesn’t agrre whith me, meanwhile, you can only bark an insult like 12 years old bully without adressing any of the points I’m making. You’re a nuisance to the internet, why dont you go jerk to some ai porn and pretend to be smart on reddit?



  • Here’s a little story for you. I’m a composer and college music teacher. Just last week, I was meeting with a potential client for music pieces and sfx for an app. I gave him my prices, which I consider to have been really low since the project was very simple, and he ended up telling me that it was really too expensive, and asking me why I didn’t have the tracks done by AI. I told him he wasn’t looking for a composer, but rather a programmer or something. I’ve been learning to play and compose and perfecting my artistic practice for 30 years. I’ve managed to make my passion my job because creating music is the thing that gives me the most satisfaction in the world. I have no interest in replacing this practice by entering prompts into an algorithm, even if I could make easy money from it. I’m a composer, that’s what I wanna do. In recent years, I’ve seen some of my students in their early twenties, often with absolutely no understanding of musical parameters, and who have already released two or three albums. At this point, someone who has never touched an instrument or produced a single piece of music on it’s own could be releasing an album a week. I’m not saying that this music is necessarily bad, I’m just saying that it doesn’t interest me, since there’s no artistic intention or approach behind it. I could also tell you about the works written by

    I could also tell you about the written assignments that students hand in, and for which I can identify in less than 30 seconds which ones have been produced by AI (students overreact to their writing skills, it’s often laughable). I don’t even read these papers, I just mark them as average, since trying to prove anything would be a waste of time. As I tell them, those who have used chatgpt have “learned” to use AI, those who have done the work have learned to carry out research, to synthesize their ideas and to structure, articulate and present them.

    One last thing. As far as innovation is concerned, AI can endlessly produce pieces that sound like Bach, but it took Bach to exist in the first place, and Glenn Gould to revolutionize the interpretation of his scores for this to be possible.


  • My main argument againt it is that I could not care less about something generated by a machine. What I like about art is seeing the world from the perspective of another human. Machines could make music albums or movies in seconds, to me it’s just a bland mashup of previous works created by humans and I have no interest in that. AI is only capable of creating variations of human art, not innovation like real artist can. We are on the edge of infinite content, I chose to give my time to human creation, not generic spin-off of it. My two cents.
