Beato has good points but it’s also what many of us have been saying.

AI generated sound will be the staple for advertisements, low cost TV and long-from videos (what used to be called “movies”), etc.

The problem for pop musicians is that pop music is usually rather simple music.

So computers make a good simulacrum.

Still, I can’t get Udio to make me a serious piano piece. All attempts at a non-pop piano creation fall apart. It is easy to tell.

And it’s even worse for symphonic pieces.

Try to get Udio to make a 7 minute long opera overature and it will just be a rambling mess.

That’s because serious music, by which I mean music composed by those trained in composition and intended for those musicians who are trained to play complex or difficult pieces, must express creative intent or it just sounds like a lot misc sounds.

Even atonal compositions are full of intent.

Art is communication. I keep repeating that.

Art is not sound, not color, not a texture.

Art is communication.

And so far what we call “AI” really does not have intent to communicate.
