Bored in Retirement? Try This.

Like you said earlier, AI is another tool in the plethora of digital production of music. There is no reason to use it. You can continue to use the tools your used to. If your goal is to make money, and promote your music commercially then maybe some form of AI assistance might be used. I have never seriously produced any AI music. It has all been experimental. I am retired now from music making, so it is really a non-issue.

No reason to feel deflated, your music stands in good stead on its own. To become successful, meaning getting lots of plays, might happen but in my experience, the thousands of digital music creators and even good music without AI, do no get enough views to become popular. So I forgot making music to be popular and did my best with what I had and that is good enough.

Wise words. Thanks.

I was going to start a new thread but this might be the thread to post in. I love music and I find some of the AI videos amazing. I do not know how to attach but please go and watch on youtube Kelly Boesch , I'd like to know what everyone thinks of them. I find the videos fascinating along with the music, this person has quite the imagination and I could spends hours watching them. With the world being the way it is and with some people being so nasty to one another watching these videos I forget about all that. I would like to thank Kelly Boesch for giving me so much enjoyment. Who would have thought. I hope you find them as enjoyable as I do.

Thanks. These discussions on AI prompted me to check out a couple of AI music production websites yesterday. I really have not followed the latest AI technology very much. What I found was jaw dropping. The capability is truly amazing - one demo featured a short, simple little melody line played on guitar. With a push of a button, that incomplete little melody was turned into a complete and fully produced song. It left me feeling very deflated and defeated.

Wanna know what makes an artist feel deflated? Seeing in our accounts that we only make a fraction of a penny per stream! Sometimes not even that! It depends on the streaming platform and even which country. But those of us who make music because we love it, shouldn't even be worried about that sort of thing. If I was, I'd be deflated for sure.

No matter how great someone is...there's always someone greater (and apparently now) something better. I know incredible musicians who doubt their talents sometimes. Don't let AI make you feel less than.

Good words. I'm starting to realize there's no reason an artist should feel threatened by their brush.
