AI's impact on audio production has, of course, become a hot topic in the game music world.

I remember meeting someone at an event that told me how great it was.

His argument was, "can you even tell it's AI?"

I said my biggest problem is that it's destroying new artists and original music.

How so? People are still allowed to make original music. The actually good music is human made anyway.

In the era of algorithmic recommendations, it doesn't matter if you make good music, it only matters if it cost the platforms 0.00001 extra dollars to recommend you vs any slop.

I agree but there is a lot of people back to buying music from artists and keeping their own servers and vinyl/cd collections. Even the kids. It might never be mainstream but there will always be art and artists.

Les artist making a living out I'd their art means that will make less, and the algorithms will bury their work so they will have an even more uphill battle.

The current system is already stacked against new artists in favor of popular ones. This stacks them against a machine that can generate a century worth of music in hours, 24/7.

That there will still exist few artists and they will make a few sons means.... Little

Its almost like capitalism is actual the problem, not that people won't want to make art.
