Thank you for the question. Artificial Intelligence has already impacted the arts, but I’ll share three examples of how it AI’s impact will manifest itself within the next decade.
First, on the topic of AI-authored books, there will be two waves of impact, the dividing line for which will become less and less clear over time. In the first wave, we will have AI assistance for various kinds of publications where the end products are co-authored or co-iterated between humans and machines. In the second overlapping wave, we will have AI-authored publications where the majority of the content is the product of the AI, edited or confirmed by humans. Lifearchitect has a decent list of the books published thus far, more than most realize. Quality has increased tremendously since the first signs of these publications, dating back to 2017, so I suspect within the decade, AI-authored publications will be quite commonplace (https://lifearchitect.ai/books-by-ai/).
Secondly, AI is having a significant impact on visual arts. Transforming one’s own art into the styles of past artists is becoming possible, although still a bit rough. Art by imitation will take on much different meaning within the next few year. Creating images from natural language descriptions is a work-in-progress but will be commonplace within the decade.
Thirdly, AI will transform music production as we know it. It already is but will enable people to imitate artists, manipulate their voices and have their live performances transcribed into compositions.
Being highly invested in music production myself, I’m very excited about AI’s impacts on the industry, but also very concerned. Music is about human expression of emotions and I hope the human side of the industry doesn’t get sacrificed. There are ways that technology and humans can co-create and “co-habitate”. I hope that remains the case.
