I have a neighbour who is not a musician and he was showing me his songs and i was like oh how did you make them songs ? oh wait i thought sounds robotic ,is that suno i said to him yeah he said there my songs ,he is like 50 and slightly autistic

ah i tried it i said it’s fun for a gimmick and a joke for a few mins but then i got bored with it coz it didnt really feel like my music ( i got a dirty look ) and as crazy as this sounds my other neighbour is a 15 year old kid he is autistic too ( his dad used to play bass)
and this kid is a very very good pianist
( i will state my nephew has autism and this has nothing to do with the post) as unbelievable as it sounds it’s 100% true) so he knocks on my door from time to time this kid and speaks about music and he is like “ “george wanna hear my song “ so i listen and i am like ahh thats good ahh did you make this on ableton intro? that i showed him how to use )
“no i made some backing tracks on suno it’s so easy he said. but mate i said your such an amazing clever piano player why do you need to do that i said? “it’s easier he said i can’t play guitar
Now if you look at my other post i have been struggling to get back into producing lately but i’ve decided im gonna do it but slowly along with practice , but i can see this “suno hooks “
appealing to kids and them saying “ whats the point of learning anything if i can make music with the click of a mouse and collaborate on this suno stuff ?

i mean at the age of 45 im trying to get back into it not for fame and of course this won’t stop me and i know things got easier with the use of daws and electronic equipment over the years

but are we really going to see the part of music ie the production and creating of pieces of music taken over by AI

What do you think ?

I still think what Jordan played was better every time

I still think what Jordan played was better every time

The last few paragraphs in the Midi Association article mentions keeping the musician at the centre with the use of the MIT Bot.
The tech is advancing and I don't think folk can avoid it.
If it were two keyboard players interacting that same statement could also be true. One player being a master or better than the other.

One question I have is, would I make use of such a tool and if I would ever want to. I have yet to come to terms with AI.
On the flip side...
It might be fun to jam along with, but would it be as satisfying as sharing a space with another human and feeling that connection.

I do admit to being intrigued by the tech behind it and wonder if the performance was orchestrated as to bars etc each would play, or did the tech stop as soon as Mr Rudess resumed playing to influence the next section and resume when he stops?

Best regards.
