I've been haning around this subreddit and make music; techno, ambient, electro, etc.

Its funny, because if you go back and listen to some early techno and the like, there was always little hints of AI and general futurist technology. Techno music is humans trying to sound like machines. Now we have machines trying to sound human.

To answer your question, i think there will be general split. Some people simply wont care, and music is music, whether it is AI/machine generated or human made. On the other hand, you'll have people who have a hard "no" on all music generated from AI. There is likely a sliding scale to that, like i'm not quite sure if AI could accurately capture the pain expressed in blues or the nimble improv and soul of jazz.

You can match and learn how to mirror vocal inflection or the small techniques that a jazz artist might have but i think ability to recognize human spirit in certain types of music, like rock, blues, jazz, soul, etc.

Personally, i think we should be moving AI towards genres like techno, house, Ambient, etc. I'd love to have a techno jam with an AI buddy that looks like BMO from Adventure Time.

As for becoming a professional artist...i think its better in any scenario to get a good day job that can afford you to have fun with it in your free time rather than explicitly going into it.
