Also, I think that AI companies are trying to solve all of the wrong problems. All of the tools I've seen are trying to replace or shorten the act of composing, which is actually fun, rather than replace or enhance the boring parts of being a composer (like sample categorization, stem exporting, organizing files, sending emails, proofreading parts, I could go on and on).

For best results with Udio, you need to use the custom lyrics box. Not only can you add your own lyrics, but you can also add tags telling the bot what part of the song you're at (verse, chorus, bridge, finale, etc) and where you want certain instruments to come in (eg, string interlude, guitar solo, piano noodling, etc). If you let the bot take total control, your results won't be all that great. You have to take control of the bot, and make it do what you want it to do. Also, the more tags you put in the prompt box up top, especially specific ones, the more control you'll have. Like anything else, you have to experiment and get experience with it before you can really start making good stuff with it.

Regarding copyright, wasn't there a recent story from Spotify where they have specifically said that they are publishing music using AI covering all possible chord progressions, lyrics using all sorts of topics and copywriting it all? AI composition will eventually replace us. If not for speed and practicality, for affordability. A friend of mine was working in an orchestra pit for years, and suddenly they were all replaced with a backing track that was arranged and sent off to an orchestra in an Eastern European country, recorded and mastered and the finished product sent back for under $1000 I don't need to illustrate the the cost savings there. AI music will only take this same business model further. A Musical Director will become the producer, engineer and artist with a press of a button. Eliminating that entire "collaboration" process. Maybe I'm just so jaded and sad about it that this is my point of view.

As of right now, the law states that chord progressions cannot be owned as a copyright. Same thing with rhythms - a case that was actually lost by Bo Diddly when he tried to copyright his signature beat. Melody and lyrics are the parts of a musical composition that copyrights apply to. I should add that this relates to the laws in the USA, not sure how it works in the rest of the world, but I assume it must be at least somewhat similar everywhere?

And you can converse with your AI so you can get it to make any kind of changes you want or variations or use the same theme in a different mood or context. The few people still hand crafting their stuff will have their inovations copied and improved in seconds where it took them years to develop their new thing.

There is nothing preventing them from breaking the rules, inventing new rules or new "models" as well. From the viewpoint of "creativity", a single AI can be more creative than any human in a myriad of ways. Whether that is "true art" or "lacks human connection" or "soul" is whole another subject.

I'm not afraid of AI. Medieval transcribers hated Gutenberg's press invention, in the same way the graphic designers hated Photoshop and so on. Have they lost their jobs? no. Only it was reset in another form. Musicians hated MIDI when it was invented, and orchestral players hated mellotron and samplers. Have they lost their jobs? No. And so it will be this time too. Not to mention the fact that some AI-generated music seems much better to me than a lot of music written by real musicians these days... 🙂 I've been able to get from UDIO songs in 1974 style and various genres: symphonic prog, pop rock, Philly soul... and fantasy soundtracks, italian music, renaissance madrigals and a fake Fab Four song too! It all depends on what we write in the prompt: for instance, "music for kids" will not work, but break down the text into multiple subsets will do. I mean: "easy", "catchy", "acoustic", "joyful", "folk" (if any), "nursery rhyme", also telling the instruments: recorders, marimba, accordion, bassoon, clarinet, glockenspiel and so on, if you will, even the reference year. Writing for instance "1975" will prevent all heavy synt dance, hip hop and metal. You can even write "lyrics about (whatever you like)". I have songs about a love story between a pencil and an eraser gum, or about a fish desiring to fly to the Moon, and so on.

As far as "we did the same thing" as an example consider what is known as the Western classical music where we have records, the names here are just the representatives of a certain era, you choose the ones you prefer: Medieval era >> Renaissance >> Bach >> Mozart >> Beethoven >> Chopin >> Rachmaninoff >> Shostakovich >> Contemporary, etc., etc. Every artist *brought their own share to the table,* enriching human culture, unlike what AI generated "art" is doing.

Best comment about generated AI , i have seen until now. AI music will only replace music in places where we want have background noise, and were we dont want to listen but only hearing music who is covering bad noise. Exemple are public toilets, stores, train station... There is also a problem with listeners. Since we have walkman , we are able to listen music everywhere. But listening has drifted to hearing music and down to consuming organisized noise. Even my self as 65 old boomer, i dont often listen music in good condition. Mostly radio in car or lying on bed relaxing when i have back pains. Rare are the moments where i can listen music in good qualitty with no background noise. An other probleme is how good are our ears to appriciate music, we gettting older or having broken ears with concert, discothek or labor. Music IA generator will getting better.

This is a deeply insightful and "human" video. So great! As you say, AI can imitate so many human things, very well. And this puts so many human endeavors at risk, for "replacement." But, as shown so well in the Blade Runner movies, and the associated writings of Philip K. Dick, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, et al., AI is all about imitation. Many of us humans will be displaced by imitation, as we have been, ever since the beginning of the industrial revolution. But there is ONE thing that can not be replicated: the life experiences of an actual human. The weaknesses of a human. The loves and hatreds of a human. The human that needs toilet paper and a good meal and a dear friend. The complete life of a human being: starting from the sheer panic of birth, and manifested in the sheer panic of life and loss going forward. Music is for humans, and by humans. As such, we composers and artists and creators must do one thing: Create what WE ourselves want to hear. No robot will ever sing a lullaby, or crack a really good joke in a pub.

There's a person behind it making a statement, creating a feeling, it's a novel written in notes that last approx. 3 minutes. It's exciting, bold sounds that explode through your speakers along with a powerful video where there's an artist showing something to the world that "matters in a way that "we alive people" can releate to and understand. Just knowing that one piece of music was made by human makes a difference in listening experience, especially if the song is larger than life, out of this world with it's sounds, lyrics and production.

BTW BIlly the Banana sounds like a great idea for a show. The music it gave you sounds more like Billy the power ranger robot, than Billy Banana. I've recently heard some music that friends of mine, who can't play music on their own, have used A.I. to make for them, guiding it based on their needs and ideas--which is a learning curve of its own. What they came up with was pretty good stock music, is the best way I can describe it, now of course stock music is used for lots of shows--where it can be better than nothing--at best, for sure or where it works fine mixed up and with talk and sound FX. It "sounds" like "real" music in that context, on their own the pieces were more and more alike the longer I listened to them on it's own. As I say, it sounds like real music until you actually listen to it, or compare it to real music, let alone real music written to picture. Of course that's more than producers may ask for or something they may not even miss--or that's what they'd tell you if you asked them. Guy your point about producers not being able to own the music, is not something I've heard said and as that appeals to being able to make more money off of their show....that's a great argument. Now some AI music program I'm sure will exist eventually specifically for games and shows, where you could say, I want blah blah blah type of music for 30 seconds, then I need it to turn into slower sad music for 1:23 then something scary happens at 5min for 15 seconds, hero arrives for 20 seconds and then return to the main theme for a minute. That would wipe out the music editor's job, though that job gets dumped on picture editors a lot these days already. I don't see that kind of control or detail yet for AI music, but the rare genius of the greats of film scoring is that they can hit all those specific moments, yet still write music that can stand on its own, has emotional impact and character depth and originality all at the same time.

Like the UJAM virtual instruments, which can play riffs but you still have to tell it what chords and nuances to use and then own the composition. You pick the riffs you like, and can develop your own style. Or the Hollywood Orchestra software, this is a great example, though I don’t mean to just use those presets it comes with, to program the MIDI yourself allows things to be created that weren’t previously possible in a short space of time.

No doubt that software, midi, virtual instruments make it easier and quicker to create music. Of course there's those who disparage it being that it's not a group of human performers. I guess I understand their side, but most of us don't have the means to hire a band. I agree with you, it's not cheating at all to use such tools, especially if you're the one who creates each and every riff and drum lick, which I do. Not saying my music's all that good, but in terms of entering each note (or performing it), that's my preference. AI is 100% different from that, no creativity involved other than your prompt.

As a poor aspiring hobby musician I am obviously not worried nor will I be affected - but the overall rise of AI (why does this sound like the "Rise of the machines" suddenly ?) - the overall increase in usage of AI which is rapidly improving by learning and spreading like a wildfire over all aspects of life is - if we as humanity treat it sensibly - a good thing. The problem is not in AI - the problem is in us as a human race being sensible - so nothing has changed ...

The text prompts you give an AI doesn't come close to the control a composer, painter or writer has. The control is what allows it to work contextually and not just sound or look alright in a vacuum. But AI is much faster which could be useful in situations when the context is not as important.

I think you're being maybe a little more than generous when you say, "good enough." Not the way yall are using them. Come on dude. Doing AI well, or even adequately to industry standards, is a very involved process. It lets you do some interesting things, but it's not a way to save time or money. It's often more expensive than doing it the traditional way. It requires all or most of the traditional skills you would already have as a composer, and an additional set of computer science skills that everyone should have anyway. Point is, if you're doing it at all, you're there for the art. That said, melody generators have been around for a long time. I just bought one that fits in a pedal. Autotune has been with us for decades. We use AI tools for mastering. We use AI tools for mixing. We are using more AI tools every day, and the next gen tools are going to be amazing for musicians, composers, and producers alike. Jobs change.

Thanks Guy! As someone who's an audio machine learning engineer and now also a part-time touring musician, I'm cautiously optimistic at best (please feel free to disagree): 1) Technically speaking, these algorithms don't "understand" or "compose" music, they simply capture different audio spectrogram patterns in the input audio data. I think it won't replace musicians and might even assist in compositions, but these algorithms learn over time. So, nothing's stopping Spotify from flooding itself with soulless music that's just training data (as Guy demonstrated in the video). 2) Fundamentally, AI music is akin to going to an expensive restaurant and consuming a pill the chef has prepared that'll make you feel the same way amazing food does, or buying expensive stadium game tickets to feel the excitement of a great game without actually watching the game. These are hollow & meaningless, just an illusion of the real human experience. 3) Making music should be at least a bit difficult, otherwise we risk getting formulaic (arguably mediocre) music, which is what we're witnessing with some popular names & genres. 4) AI music isn't a new instrument or a new recording technique or tool. It's LITERALLY algorithmic shuffling of different compositions to spit out a mindless "tune" that only sounds humane, but actually isn't. For-profit organisations are problematic since they'll always prioritise profit over creativity & supporting musicians, at least until copyright laws adapt accordingly. 5) Music education is so poor that people just don't understand how difficult it is to make ANY kind of composition. The frustrating system of payments, copyrights, licensing, and royalties (Spotify is one of the WORST offenders!) makes matters worse.

I've heard this whole debate many times before. "It'll kill creativity. It'll put real musicians out of work." Etc, etc. The same things were said when synthesizers became affordable and popular. The same things were said when MIDI became widespread. More recently, the same things were said when software orchestras came along. While it could be argued that to some extent that did happen with the tools mentioned above, it could also be argued that a whole big bunch of new music happened BECAUSE of those tools. I myself create new music using BBCSO Core (a software orchestra). That music would not have happened AT ALL without software orchestras. I enjoy hearing new music that other composers have created using software orchestras. I also create new music using synthesizers I own, and MIDI. This music would not have existed at all without those tools. So I'm rather on the fence about all this AI business. Yes, it could do a lot of harm.

Section starting at 2:20 once again highlights some crucial points about ai music, which I've personally mentioned several times on various channels: ai can produce music that sounds "cool" or "impressive" with not much more than a single prompt, with recent models it can even deliver complete songs this way, but it can't grasp rich and complex human emotions and express them through music. That's quite a difference. A good example is chat robots. I've worked a lot with ai lyrics, and if you simply ask for a set of lyrics, youl'll get something that - when read out - resembles the sound of somebody reading out a shopping list or bulletin board. Short statements and points, listed one by one, often with lines using the exact same number of syllables every time, with each line divided by a comma around the middle. The sound of this is incredibly mechanical and lifeless, and if used in a song, the result will be equally horrid. But that doesn't mean that ai can't be used to help write good lyrics... the key word here is "help", if effort is put into it, you can work together with the ai in a process leading to a meaningful lyric. By asking for all sorts of modifications, explaining what you're trying to express, and the emotions involved... you can eventually get there. And when the time comes to apply these lyrics to music, it's the same thing again. Even good lyrics will sound "dead" without human guidance, investment and perseverance. Creating a good song takes work, it's just that with ai, the process can be much shorter. So anybody serious about composing/songwriting will not be "threatened by ai"... muzak-writers, on the other hand - they are the ones who should worry. Music is art, and true art requires you to invest yourself... if you're not willing to do that, then tough luck, your days of moneymaking through soulless music are probably over. If your songwriting is robotic, then actual robots are now better at it than you. That is not to say, that music will be forever a closed chapter for you. Should you decide, that you're willing to invest some of yourself, then you can learn, and your existing technical skills from your muzak-past would come in handy. Ai music CAN be soulful, but it is up to us humans to provide that soul and infuse it into our songs. I really like the closing statements of the video, that composers should rise to the challenge and invest themselves, and if they do, the result will be better music, for the benefit of us all.

The real danger is the human 'intelligence' (or lack of it) when it comes to understanding the tool, its limitations, its actual uses etc. In the same way that people wanted to (and did) use magnets, electricity, X-rays for everything (even when they damaged the body with it), people are now using AI in fundamentally wrong directions and with fundamental misunderstandings about these particular systems that are so hyped.

Only we, as humans, could do these so far. But... if we think that all human creativity will die because some humans don't demand proper artistic output, if we think humans stop wanting actual creativity and its results, then yes, event his rudimentary and shockingly crap AI (wiht no actual intelligence and a huge step back from AI systems of 40+ years ago) will be the end of human creativity. But... based on human history and disruptive inventions, I don't think humans will simply become mindless bland music consumers - well, many do that and they put up with incredibly bland human compositions. For them, AI will be cheaper, easier, faster. But never ever in our history the development of actual art forms was dictated by this subset of audiences. AI may change many things over coming many years - but the key factor is whether humans become so soulless and dumb to ONLY want that kind of self-imitating regurgitative AI output.

So let's see, but the current danger is that some in key places attribute far more to these AI systems and their output than what those represent or deserve.

Thing is, we real humans already have access to virtually every piece of music ever made - via KZitem, Google, the internet in general, or out in the real world of things. So we already have access to all the sonic data that AI is relying on. For example, we can all go listen to every Beatles song ever recorded, and learn every chord progression and see which songs of theirs did best on the charts. Think of the countless bands over the years who have tried to copy that "formula", in the hopes of becoming "the next Beatles". How many of these bands' songs actually had any real impact? To the extent that the music was too _similar_ to what was being emulated, these bands were rightly forgotten as copycats. And to the extent they threw in their _own_ spin, it was usually rubbish. The point being, just because you have access to all the raw data doesn't mean you'll produce anything people will love. Knowing exactly why a song appealed to people is much more nuanced, granular and elusive than you might think. Being afraid of generative music "competition" is essentially like being afraid of "all the other artists out there". _Go make music, people._

Until AI is capable of emotion (this requires having a subconscious mind), music is safe as an art form. BUT, yeah, the music industry bean counters in marketing, the financial planners, they miss the point of what make Music- MUSIC! All they see is MONEY (or a lack of it). So for them it is about profit, not art. (Although art can be very profitable.) AI can't be truly creative. All it can do is randomize elements and bring them together. That's why your AI creation of a kids TV show theme was such a bust! AI can teach and inform, it can be logical and reasonable (in a world where logic and reason are routinely thrown out the window).

AI (by which we mean deep learning neural networks) come in two branches. Those like ChatGPT which are essentially giant encyclopedias augmented by state-of-the art Natural Language Processing plus a few specialised party tricks. Then there are those like Google's Alpha Zero that can learn to do one thing at a time (meaning pretty much any one thing) way beyond human capability, for example, to play chess at least 25% better than the current world chess champion Magnus Carlson. AIs like ChatGPT can produce music along the lines of "write me a song X about Y in the style of Z". What comes out will be purely derivative and most often sound "canned". Such Ai's will be very good at writing elevator music for example. So shake in your shoes if you earn your crust writing elevator music. AIs like Alpha Zero, AFAIK, have not yet been tasked with learning how to write music. I'm pretty sure Google hasn't tried to do this with Alpha Zero yet. However if they did it might be a game changer. What they might do is give it a crash course in music theory and a few styles/genres to concentrate on then plug it into various music streaming services (Spotify, Pond5, Splice etc). Then tell it to start writing/producing. It's self learning can be based around feeding it streams/download data for it's tracks from the services it's plugged into. It will quickly start to figure out what works and what doesn't. A *lot* faster and more accurately than any human could. Furthermore it would start to create it's own styles and even genres, it would not be limited to aping existing genres. My guess is it would start to make an impact on Splice first, then Pond5 and maybe sometime later it might start getting streams on Spotify. If it did then that's the time to panic. It's possible Google might not want Alpha Zero to do this on the basis it would be totally uncool to do so, i.e. that's why this potentially existential threat to composers/songwriters hasn't materialised yet. In any event the one thing Alpha Zero will not able to do is to play guitars, pianos, horns, flutes, proper drums etc better than humans can as anyone who has tried to program such instruments as VSTs in MIDI already knows (and why Guy never programs his stuff in MIDI, owns a bunch of guitars etc, plays in everything on his keyboard). ChatGPT actually made this point tangentially during Guy's interview with it. For this reason I would say the folks most at risk from AIs like Alpha Zero are those who make electronica, especially electronic dance music.

To give an example, it would be like starting a band trying to copy AC/DC's style without being able to play guitar as well as Angus Young can. The result will generate nothing more than a passing interest if that. Why would anybody bother listening to you over the original. What folks are really interested in is new music, not derivative music. An AI can't come up with new music by copying existing music. So analyzing existing music on Spotify will not get it to the top of the charts. That doesn't mean AI can't in principle create good new music, but it does mean it has to train in a different way. In this case just like a human musician trains. You try stuff and you see if folks like it. If they don't you try something else. If you strike lucky then you double down on it and go on from there.

It's essentially a loop mash construction. Very clever but that's all it is, clever. b) the production is awful, swimming in mud. You can't hear vocals properly or understand the lyrics (which is possibly a blessing). The guitars are just weird, they don't sound real to me. Overall it sounds like Oasis on a bad night recorded on a cheap cassette recorder. c) Other than out of passing curiosity of what AI can do in terms of copying an artist's style and sound there is no reason whatsoever to play this instead of Definitely Maybe or Morning Glory. Playing either after Aisis is like the sun suddenly coming out and the world turning technicolor from grey. In short I would wager a tidy sum that Aisis will fail to out-stream Definitely Maybe on Spotify.

Ai can do "sounds like ... " - AI cannot do "make me a ground-breaking new genre or sub-genre" (Current AI at least).

As a failed musician, I can say that Suno and Audio are helping me immensely in learning how to structure songs and iterate ideas quickly, as well as improving my skills as a lyric writer. The key is to use AI as a tool, not a replacement. I believe the next phase will see Spotify becoming a content producer for its platform (as it is suspected they are already doing with plans like Einaudi), followed by major record labels attempting to create their own subscription services. After this phase, a segment of the population should become tired of AI-generated music, leading to a renaissance of human-made music. If possible, in one of your next videos, could you discuss the terrible trend of recent years where pop songs are remixed to sound cinematic? I've noticed a sharp decline in quality in this regard, and I believe it stems from trying to cut costs on skilled composers, resulting in cheaply produced atrocities. Thank you.

At 6:03, AI states "at its current stage cannot fully replicate." Eventually, it is believed AI will be able to do that. However, in the future when AI can write novels and full-length scores, there will be a movement among (hopefully many) humans to boycott AI created art in order to preserve the human experience. I personally suspect that one of the first forms of music AI will master is the ostinato given it's arguably the easiest with which to write music. Some advice AI left out, is to consider composing free of a DAW at times. It will be harder for AI to master pencil paper before a computer. Some of my best themes have come about working it out in my head and on paper. Just something to consider. I also expect that since the industry side of film is all about saving costs given lower ticket sales, and since music is usually an afterthought, it will be one of the first stages of the process to save further money by incorporating music created through AI. To end on a more positive note, Guy is right - no one can take away your love for it. Keep writing.
