As a hobby musician, I have engaged with the topic of AI-generated music on various occasions. Here’s what I found:
- AI could soon be capable of composing music perfectly tailored to our individual emotional needs.
- In his book „Sweet Anticipation“, David Huron explains how our evolutionarily acquired response systems influence our musical experience.
- AI tools like Suno and Udio already demonstrate the potential to transform text into music.
- Is a future conceivable where personalized soundtracks and therapeutic music could be the new normal?
This raises ethical questions, not least!
And the music industry has been facing new challenges for quite some time anyways. At the same time, new creative possibilities are emerging through human-AI collaboration.
What do you think? Is AI-composed music an enrichment or a threat to our emotional music experience and ultimately our culture?
Let’s discuss!
