If it collects royalties , Who's getting the money ? Lets break it down . Session players $150.00 per player 6 players all live $900.00 . The artist sings it . throw in another $500.00 producer and Atmos mixing , total $1400.00 on a low figure . Robots what 5 cents ? whole song. singer and players are robots . is that accurate ? The only thing that is logical to me . Anyone who uses AI , Does not want to write a melody , does not want to pay session players does not want to sing it. So its 5 cents out the door . Lets talk time, if lyrics were written by AI user, Lets say a week . To produce the AI track , Lets say 10 minutes , pushing a button . lets talk real players . One week for lyrics . to produce track out , sing mix , Lets put it at 3 weeks with lag time. Lets touch on time some more . The artist and session players are spending weeks, months ,and years for a decent melody and tracks . AI user 10 minutes.

In conclusion . Lets think about artists , session players , producers . mix guys that spend years learning and practicing the craft , Humans , Ok now think about ROBOTS.

And who will employ policemen and firemen when they are replaced by non humans?

I can imagine how messed up it will be with road robo cops, tickets for everything, cause they wont miss anything. Once the states realize how much money is coming in nobody will care about the human.

i understand your thought, but remember when there was a argument "Pay artists for their work" did anybody care? They stole millions and millions and millions of songs illegally downloading them.

Nobody cares about existential causes like that. Time rolls on, and as Dylan sang, "The times they are a changing"

My feeling is there will be some kind of differentiator in AI, that will allow talent to really shine above non talent.

I think people who got by on three chords may be in for it. Gonna have to get creative with chord progressions and what we write about, trying to be the first one to ever use such and such modulation .

I cant see anything from udio being on the radio right now, it sounds too much like other artists. But im sure there are people with much better mouse traps to work with already who will soon be on the charts. In a sense, alot of pop and dance music has been the same for years anyway. The credit goes to the people pressing the buttons. its always been that way.

Rock n roll has been a different animal, at least till the end of 90's.

but dont make the mistake that because you're emotionally involved with your music, that people will care if you're replaced. Nobody has cared enough to take a stand on any developments that have replaced peoples jobs.

what about Printing companies? My friends dad sent his kid to college on his printing business. Now any idiot can print off computer for free.
