Well, there’s really no problem here Brian. The composers, songwriters, artists, publishers, record companies, etc. well never stand for it. Well, maybe somewhere far in the future when there won’t be such a thing as property rights. It seems the only motive for such action is to make the AI people feel legit. Until then, my music will be my property. And I can leave it to my heirs.

“SO what is VALUABLE... selling music or playing and creating music?” Brian
Both, if one wants to get paid for their hard work. I knew an editor of a local paper once. He loved writing weekly commentaries. But NO ONE in the business would ever consider not paying him.

“Literally millions of songs an hour are being created already. As it improves, there will no longer even be a point to discussing human or robot because there will be 10,000,000,000 robot works for every 1 a human creates” – Brian
People who license my music want it to be cleared. My publisher takes responsibility for that. And there’s a strong market for legitimate music, without worries of lawsuits.

BTW, what a lousy world it will be when all creative minds are put to rest.

Best, John smile
