People will always want something real, whether it’s seeing live music and feeling the energy of the performers, or viewing a real painting and seeing the textures and layers. AI will never be able to give the same experience.

I would like to believe that it will be so...

Can it be monetized, what is the rate of return on the investment? Is there an underserved market that AI generated music can dominate?

I would say it depends on genre. In rap or electronic it might be okay. But in genres like rock or classical it is terrible.

Chess computers have been around for a while now. They own human players in all aspects of the game. Yet, people still like watching humans play. In fact, Chess has never been as popular as it is right now. I wouldn’t worry so much.

Nah music is an expression of human emotions and experience Ai can imitate it but it’s not the real thing it won’t have that human spirit to it that gives it that “magic”

well I dont find AI as threatening as a lot of artists do. I believe we got to accept technology in our lives, its a new form of art. it IS valuable too. so I will definitely enjoy better tools of ai.

Art is the manipulation of tech, philosophy, and socialital values for esthetic practices. So, in general, no. Though, it will likely change what we perceive as art.

Van Gogh never would have happened without portable premixed paint, the shifting philosophical attitudes of the role of the working class at the time, and the expanding wealth of the middle class due to early industrialization.

In music, MIDI and sampling have been around for decades, and despite this, people still play instruments, but those tech advancements are driving forces for entire genres of music never before possible.

Technology is simply another tool, and AI is no different. It will, however, like all art, change and reflect how we perceive the world around us.

It will def make its way into the mainstream over time. But, it will not replace real music from the heart. I think commercial and country music, as an example, could easily be replaced wit AI eventually. But, there will always be humans making music, and that music will always be better.
