Good music can be AI-imitated well enough so that many people will be fooled, but *very* good music and really truly earthy music that has *that certain feel* of the human experience in life will not, imo, be duplicable. <\/p>\n

AI will find the imitation of banal music, and banal art, to be easy prey.<\/p>\n

I use the word ‘prey’ regarding the art, music and writing that AI sucks up and imitates. I do not use the word with imprecision. I assert that chatGPT and Suno and Udio, et al, are essentially shapeshifters, like the pod-people in movies who take you over, and use your form, destroying the original person in the process. AIs of this kind are designed to predate<\/strong>.<\/em> They are designed to devour and digest. The predator leaves the bones of creators behind, within its scat.<\/p>\n
