Singing would an interesting experiment, but I don't see that here.

AI art gets rid of the technical skill step but the rest is there, although you may luck in to something at random. If you’re using ControlNet on Stable Diffusion or training your own models you have a lot of control over the output as well.
I could easily find that music entertaining if it started playing the moment my character triggered a trap and suddenly, "the floor is lava" or my character enters a scene with the quest of winning over one of the love interests =)
The people we need to worry about are aallll of the people earning a living for everything else like background music for Indi games, Ambient music etc.
I don't believe that's a good example. Video game music is an important part of the gaming experience, but its often taken for granted or overlooked.

Or the changes shortly after 1:15, 2:15 and 2:40 in these extensions of Take On Me:
From all of the hype, I want to be impressed with results. Instead, we get these mediocre at best examples of what it can do. They are not good sales pitches to me.
Yes, but not very well.
What I want is "AI" to do something impressive. Why are we trying to make the system generate the sounds itself? We don't make artists do that, we give them instruments. Give the models actual instruments, and then have it play them like a real artist. I will be much more impressed with an AI that understands composition and scoring, use of musical voices, key signatures. That would still be generative. I guess I just don't understand the point of the direction being taken. It's like a solution looking for a problem.
Similarly, we don't have recordings of the actions of painters; we have finished paintings -- but if you're not impressed with what AI can do in the visual sphere, your standards are, to put it mildly, high.
Yes, my standards are if it isn't at least as good as what's available now, what's the point.
In the same way, many successful musicians can't read sheet music or know music theory, they just know how to produce something that sounds good.
Right, because they can operate the instruments that make the sound with natural talent, but they don't have to draw the waveforms. Audio generation is much different than image generation. It's just very odd to me.
ChatGPT is good in a way that having it is better than not having it, especially with how bad google has become, audio generation will also be good in this way, some people don't need your "musical expertise" but just some background calm music to use with a tutorial video without having youtube take it down for copyright infringement.
some go to video game music concerts or to fan covers
