AI Generated Music

You hear a lot about music being created by Artificial Intelligence these days. I recently read an article about how they were going to have an AI finish Beethoven’s Tenth Symphony. For those who don’t know, he published nine symphonies and there are apparently notes for a tenth.

You have to wonder if people are really serious. I mean it’s not like we don’t have enough artificial intelligence as it is.

I suppose artificially generated pop music is the music business’ big dream. They can finally eliminate the middleman, the artist who is just always getting between them and their product. Let’s face it; the artist is just such a liability to the music business what with all the neurosis, drugs and demanding to be paid all the time.

They’ve gone from signing new bands to creating acts, so they may as well go the next step and eliminate the artist.

But let’s take a closer look here. What’s the difference between artificial intelligence and the real organic stuff? The only difference is that artificial intelligence needs programing to function.

But wait, isn’t that the problem with most intelligence on the planet? It requires programing and has gotten programed, in fact. So the intelligence that programs artificial intelligence has itself been programed.

Most of our art, news and culture is indeed the product of artificial intelligence. It needs programing to function and has, indeed, been programmed.

There is apparently not much of the good old organic self-programming intelligence around on this planet, which may explain a great deal about it.

No wonder this idea of AI generated music has appeared and no one questions it.

The question is; who are the original programmers? This artificial intelligence has obviously been around for a long time, otherwise people would be questioning it and, like they say, ‘garbage in, garbage out.’

Clytemnestra

Dizzy O'Brian Electrifies Ancient Tragedy with Alternative Rock Video Dizzy O'Brian, the enigmatic figure in alternative rock, has dropped a visually arresting video accompanying his track from "The Electra Suite." This isn't just another music video; it's a modern, electrifying interpretation of a classic Greek tragedy. "The Electra Suite" itself is a bold endeavor. It's a collection of alternative rock tracks that reimagines the story of Electra, the daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra, consumed by vengeance after her father's murder. However, O'Brian doesn't simply retell the ancient tale. He injects it with a contemporary edge, twisting and subverting expectations to create a unique and compelling narrative.
