Why Generative AI Music Is Hard

I have been doing lots of experiments with visuals too for example this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;m-onz&#x2F;artifice">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;m-onz&#x2F;artifice</a>. I made an installation at Corsica Studio&#x27;s <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fakedac.net" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fakedac.net</a> with genai content all night. Drum and bass, techno and many other genre&#x27;s.<p>That 2 hour mix was created in an extremely short amount of time. Limited by the fact suno and udio don&#x27;t have API&#x27;s. I&#x27;ve done tonnes of work using replicate.com musicGen A.I that I threw in the bin once I heard udio &amp; suno... once we get API access... there will be new genre&#x27;s of music and hyper media beyond what we can consider normal music now.<p>There is some scope for prompt engineering with text-to-* media generators... combined with automation. Machine listening and categorization: For example a network of virtual listeners able to refine and generate new work before a human hears it... think music agent systems by Nick Collins on steroids.

I&#x27;m less impressed with the &quot;quality&quot; of AI music but amazed by what AI savvy artists use it for. A generative artist called m-onz took a blog post of mine from yesterday and in a few hours created a... well I don&#x27;t even know what to call it - kinda experimental music&#x2F;noise prompted by the blog so that words are sung, scratched, dubbed in a hundred different styles. As a creative lever this is surely impressive even if it ain&#x27;t &#x27;beutiful&#x27;.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;soundcloud.com&#x2F;m-onz&#x2F;carnival-of-clowns" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;soundcloud.com&#x2F;m-onz&#x2F;carnival-of-clowns</a>

It is naive to assume that all the things AI might produce are equal. Some things are meant to communicate at a human to human level, and those turn out to be much much harder. When AI can absorb the experience of being human it will do it.

The ROI isn&#x27;t there until you have gen video
