The dream of communists and supporters of UBI (Universal Basic Income) is that when the machines are doing all the menial jobs, humans will be freed up for more creative activities.

But what if the robots are better at all the creative activities...

Not a big deal; they’re just going to identify the most commonly used chord progressions and then fill in the bars, accordingly and randomly within logical parameters. Done.

I’m at work, and can’t post the link.
But on YouTube there’s a video of a bunch of clips from Batman Begins to the Gary Numan song, “Haunted.”
It’s really good.

They will be better. Machines have more heart than anyone on ADHD meds.

Hans Zimmer is the most creative musician in the world at the moment.

Oh, I love his work. I have many of his soundtracks in my library.

Another thing about Mr. Numan.
I remember him quoted in the late ‘90s saying, “I’m not a socialist. I don’t believe in giving my money away.”

Ah, yes. C Am F G, the Ricky Nelson school of music.

“Jut dont need the trouble.”

Agreed. I was merely harking back to my misspent rock and roll youth, such as it was...

True...but in my day, Greta Van Fleet would be considered a Led Zepplin cover band....Robert Plant can’t stand them.

AI is not synths, samplers, automation, midi, impulse-response, effects processors, etc. These are good things.

AI involves machine learning and eventual creativity that will no doubt negatively impact the human factor of composition. Not a fan of the possibility.

I love his music.

The Rock is probably my favorite soundtrack by him.

You said you are into $10 underground club bands. The best I’ve seen in a bit is Savanah’s Cusses. They are Gen X’s though.
