A lot of people seem to doubt the ability of AI, but I think you are absolutely on to something. As this technology develops there’s no reason any publishing or production company couldn’t start manufacturing “art” around AI “personalities”. Music, movies, art in general has always been a double edged sword, the money people needed the talented people to actually make the product. But the money people would gladly cut the talent out of the picture and reap pure profits without having to share. It will be interesting to see if any new laws are created in response to this, maybe some kind of “source law”, but I’m sure there will be “legal work arounds” as well. The future will definitely be interesting if AI is going to continually absorb and regurgitate “talented works” in any sort of reputable and “respected” way.

Here's a link to the song.
What's interesting is that it's surprisingly good, as the AI nails using the human voice clone expressively. The song needs a suitable emotional register of heartbreak, and the AI gives it that.
I wonder what this means for the future of the music business? Will the biggest-selling artists still be able to make as much money when their voice has been endlessly cloned for thousands of cover versions? Presumably, we will have a future where every popular song has been covered by thousands, if not millions, of deep-faked voices. When will we reach a point AI deep-faked songs outnumber the human ones?

This sucks
We already know they wont be labeled as ai songs and people will pass them off as their own just like whats already happening with art.
This is one of the worst directions ai could have gone.

Anyone got links to ai-generated music that isn't based on existing music?

That’s the way the times are going. You can either accept it, because art has always had huge changes in human history, or you can be a boomer about it. The former sounds way more fun, so I’m gonna do that.

GOOD.
The democratization of art is exploding and eventually it will be automated.
Infinite iterations of artistic pieces, art, music, movies, games.
Most of us are consumers anyway, not artists, we never cared about what's behind the scenes.

I would love to have this to collaborate with. I’m a mediocre musician, a shit singer, and a decent lyricist. I often have a mental idea of what I want a song to be and can build a framework but i lack the talent or the collaborators to create it into a polished piece. I can see this being the perfect addition for any wanna music creator.

Sounds like a super generic cover of the song... not sure why I expected anything else.

This is the only direction it could have gone. This is what progress in AI looks like.

Yes AI will make music but nobody will pay to see a CPU live in concert.

And somebody else pointed out that Abba did an avatar concert. I stand humbly corrected and deeply saddened.

That's already happening, and I'm afraid a lot of people don't care.
I won't deny that there are a lot of talented artists out there who can give an incredible live performance.
But at the same time there are also a lot of artists with songs that underwent all kinds of digital processing and enhancements, such as autotune. Songs with autotune are still being labeled with the artists name, even if the artist is not able to reproduce the song live.
I see this technology as an evolution of autotune-ish technology. However, I don't know if we should be happy about it...

Most musicians already don’t make money on streams. I think there will always be demand for the live musician. Until we have musician robots, I guess.

Holly is not doing its own expression. It requires a song to be input and then it creates its version of the song based on that. You can try it yourself here
Its not that great.
This video was created after painstakingly tuning a filter and AI processing of the original song.

Well damn, the anime Carole & Tuesday shows that happening around 2072 where all music is AI created and no one bothers to write the old fashioned way anymore. Guess we’re early.

Avatar "influencers" with their own social networking profiles selling fashionable products for their sponsors have been around for quite a while. Whether they incorporate AI so you can have simple conversations with these things I don't know.

Yeah except there's a huge problem. The market is flooded to hell in art across the board. There is already too much going on. AI is only going to exacerbate this. Once someone can generate a full song, pictures, or movies/videos with a few button presses its going to be insane. And realistically, no one is going to give a shit. People already don't give a shit.
