Hahaha, some of the experiments around AI by the big companies is very interesting. The Facebook one indeed. The Microsoft one as well with the Twitter bot that went totally racist and mean. A few times I talked about AI generated music with some of my friends being professional producers and DJ's. Though they are technical, they generally believe AI will not replace them... But to be honest, I think AI can replace the producers and musicians. That said, when so, it'll be the live performances that'll be the unique element of a human artist. Sure, also their own 'manually' created music, for their best fans, but the mass will not care too much anymore in such future. I suppose the circle will be back to where music was before all the technology, like recording possibilities, back to performing, rather than creating and mass distribution.

I find your point of view very interesting because it makes me think where are we heading with all this and what could be the consequences? 😐 Although I agree that there are many processes that can be substituted by AI, I also think that there are many others in which it is not (and maybe that is exactly what saves music from becoming something totally artificial). For example: the artistic production and development of a concept, the process of mixing from the artistic point of view, the process of composition, the expressiveness when performing, improvisation, imperfection (in which there is also beauty). I think it is true that technology (specifically AI) could imitate some of these points, but I consider it difficult that they can fulfill them as a human and get to replace it completely. I really liked the comment, it reminded me of the TV series "Black Mirror". 🤔🤖
