  Disagree honestly.

  AI music isn’t inventing sick rifts or using new instruments together. Humans do. We’ll continue to make the better music

  Voice acting is similar. Without Patrick Warburton AI would never generate such a distinct sound.

  Now will companies continue to hire them? That’s the argument, but if they don’t their product will be bad and we’re seeing companies struggling because their products are bad and people don’t want them anymore: Starfield, Star Wars Outlaw, Concord, etc.

    The thing is, we still have recognizable human voices, so there continues to be a market for that talent. But how long will that last? Once AI generated voices become good enough to create new, recognizable voices, it’s game over.

    For now, perhaps. It really is only a matter of time before the “algorithm” in these AI music generation tools know what people like to hear, and creates music that hooks them. It doesn’t have to be a sick riff, just an earworm that keeps people hooked.

    There still may be a market for live musical performances, and I’d still want to see humans on stage. But commercial music? It’s too easy for a movie or game producer to enter the prompt: “Errie, slow music with a focus on string instruments.” and be done with it.

    Sure, some human input will still be required to program a new sound or to tweak the created content, but that won’t take the same talent or skill as our current artists.

    The only way around this that I can see is to have “Human Verified Content” certification on music, movies, video games, websites, etc., and for people who want to support that content. If enough people simply get used to AI generated art/entertainment, then there’s no path forward for these professions.

    Yeah, the AI songs are just overlays on an already existing song. Even when making something new the AI has to be “trained” on existing material. They can’t make something from nothing… yet.

      And that’s the important part: “yet”.

      AI is fairly new, so it only has human-created datasets to work off. But at some point, it’ll either generate original content on its own, or rely on content already created by other AI.

      The quality and originality of this content will probably be stale, but enough of it will be generated to make money and keep people interested, that I don’t think it’ll matter. The enshitification of the arts is rapidly upon us.

        What you’re describing there is called model collapse and it’s not a good thing. A generative AI ouroboros accumulates error until its output is useless.
