By 2023, 60% of professional musicians were using AI to make music in some way, for example composing (11%), mastering (final adjustments of albums; 31%), or generating artwork (38%).
Music can lift the human spirit, inspire, empower, soothe and heal.
AI will redefine the music industry, creating delight for listeners while triggering outrage in musicians and producers.
In 2023, The Beatles released a new song after forty-five years, using AI to process an old demo tape by John Lennon which was spoilt by noise interference, just one small example of the musical deluge to come.
That track was almost universally acclaimed as a wonderful addition to The Beatles’ repertoire.
AI is already replacing players of traditional instruments, as well as generating entirely new sounds, providing highly advanced tools at very low cost to a new generation of artists.
Humans will continue to have a creative edge in composing, and it is very unlikely that many global hits will be 100% AI-generated anytime soon.
One reason is that the future is about emotion, as we have seen in earlier chapters. You can be as smart as you like, but unless music engages the human spirit, it is just empty and irritating noise.
Daily Telegraph review (14 September 2024 UK):
"If you need to acquire instant AI mastery in time for your next board meeting, Dixon’s your man.
Dixon gives us plenty to think about: AI’s role in surveillance; AI’s role in intellectual freedom and copyright; AI’s role in warfare; AI’s role in human obsolescence – his exhaustive list runs to over two dozen chapters.
Business types will enjoy Dixon's meticulous lists and his willingness to argue both sides against the middle."
