A Modern Tribute to Dire Straits – AI Creates an Original Track with Knopfler’s

There's no way to put the genie back in the bottle. The damage is already done, and it will only get worse.

I think the same.

Hi there. Why not Hunter 3.0?   

Welcome back.

I actually asked the mods to delete my account, but they refused.

Totally agree. Unfortunately it will come down to simple bottom line economics....

This paints the moderators in much too good a light, implying that we have some sense of morality or give much thought to these things.

The reality is that we are all busy, but ultimately lazy people with busy lives and I suspect that in both these cases it was just never got round to

Obviously I never said I was 100% against AI, for example in the health care sector.
This IS after all a forum that celebrates creativity, one of the great songwriters our time, one of the greatest musicians the UK has produced.
Tech billionaires are looking to replace creative visionaries with AI, because it doesn't cost them anything, it has no mind of it's own to criticise them (Money For Nothing) and it's going to make them trillionaires instead of just billionaires.
I was just suggesting a forum of members who presumably value people like Mark Knopfler not casually laugh off the first attempts to replace Knopfler and the Knopfler's of the future.

Apart from the horrendous guitar parts it’s better than 95% of what’s produced by today’s music industry. I’m not saying it’s great but yeah…

[Eddie Fox]

AI is only a tool.

Currently being used to replace real creative people. If you want that, fine, go ahead and promote it, if you don't pease don't encourage it's promoters by spreading their product and chattering about it.

Do you really think that you can counter use of AI that way ?

Creative people themselve are already using AI.

Lots of jobs, creative or not, will be taken over by use of AI.

IMHO the debate about AI has to be spoken out loud.

True thing. It’s impossible to hold it back. As long as what’s created with the use of AI is identified as such I have no problem with that.

Good point but I think creative minds that get replaced with IA will create their own business and use IA themselves. It’s like the doping scandal in Tour de France, everyone was on it.

[Chris W]

No, the correct analogy in this case is the Tour de France looking to replacing riders with robots on bikes.
I'm surprised so many are excusing this. Tech people are looking to develop and perfect song creation, in this case in the style of MarkKnopfler, to replace future Mark Knopflers to save money, and a whole bunch of die hard Mark Knopfler fans are ok with it?

[Robson]

I disagree. NO to artificial intelligence in music!

Kind of Frankenstein myth ?

But AI to do its job need to have a preexisting Mark Knopfler, AI can not create Mark Knopfler - well at current time.

The immediate danger with AI is that it will be able to replace session musician. It won't put everybody out their job but a lot of people will lose theirs.

Sadly you are wrong. Spotify is already using 100% AI created music to populate its most popular playlists. This is the end game of streaming. To replace human created music because it's too expensive. The next 'Mark Knopfler' won't ever be heard, because he'll be replaced on streaming by hours of AI created music.
