Michael W Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Give it a listen. Are we screwed? "The Last Human Song" [Verse] When the machines take over Our notes will fade No room for soul In this cold parade [Verse 2] Our fingers play keys But they feel so dead Lost in ones and zeros Future's made of lead [Chorus] AI sings the chorus No heart in the sound Songs of sorrow On this battleground [Verse 3] No more feeling Just data streams Human touch lost In robotic dreams [Bridge] Where's the passion In circuit's click No voice trembling No hands that stick [Verse 4] Will they weep When silence falls No human needed Inside these walls 1 Quote Michael Montage 8, Logic Pro X, Omnisphere, Diva, Zebra 2, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brenner13 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 I’d cover that song and throw in a couple of screwy notes and sing slightly off pitch here and there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindaru Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 A.I and human can collaborate. I do not think we will be replaced. It is a big world and we all need to work together. A group of us EMO owners put on a contest. I collaborated with mine and this is what we came up with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RW8QheivB0 "EMO Vision Contest" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be surprised if AI workflows will not be standard in all music software within the next years, and I definitely look forward to find out how creative the software creators will be in terms of how they will use the technology to give us new interesting tools for inspiring us in our creative endavours! 1 Quote "You live every day.

It was a perfect human society, governed by the efficient Auto, before Wall-E came along and forced the packs of tribal monkeys back to a garbage-strewn dirtball *We are very likely to "survive", but our current society seems extremely fragile. We have mass quantities of people arguing up is down, even the relatively minor threat of Covid knocked things for a loop. In a bit more seriousness, if we the apes can immerse ourselves in (physically) harmless VR while AI runs things, that is probably our best chance of making it. Who makes the music isn't even on the list of my concerns if I was some immortal observer of the species.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cphollis Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 So much unwarranted doom and gloom. Humans have been inventing technology to make their lives easier and more productive since we first became human. It's what we do. Almost every big innovation in recorded history is met with predictions of doom and gloom which really never happen. The current AI trepidation reminds me of the Luddites rebelling against the very factory machines that delivered an improved standard of living for all. I guess it is our nature to invent cool things that scare other people. 2 1 Quote Want to make your band better? Check out "A Guide To Starting (Or Improving!)

My Keys And Me Are Vintage Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Humans will do what humans have always done - we sing and bang on things to a beat. Just because some software developer has attempted to “can” that human trait and resell it does not take that desire away from humans. Sure, technology is making us physically lazy. We have used tech to ease our physical burdens. But “tech” does provide us a way to exercise our voracious human minds. Humans also like shiny new things (as do crows, so nothing special about humans there!) and will always pursue those things. So is AI to be feared? Nah, it is a compliment to humans, not a replacement for our humanity. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cliffk Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 This brings to mind an episode from the original Star Trek series (bear with my memory: Kirk and co may well have had a few of these encounters). Anyhoo, they come across a society of humans perfect in every way - until of course they discover a flaw. Edit after a second listen: for all the obvious dialled-in ‘inflections’, that vocal is super sterile (‘scuse the oxymoron). I think we’ll be ok … ✊ 1 Quote YouTube music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggypants Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Why not get the computers to listen to the music while we get on with all the things the computer doesn't want to do. Like submitting tax forms and cleaning sewers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. No shortage of Chicken Little moments. Nuclear proliferation was going to end the world as we know it. The Yamaha DX7 was going to break up the band. Destroy the orchestra. Put musicians out of work. All h8ll was supposed to break loose at Y2K. Here we are 24 years later..... Smartphones have probably made some people more dumb and lazy but the jury is still out as we tally up scorecards.🤣😎 1 Quote PD "The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love and be loved in return."--E.
