Suno, Udio (and other music AI). We're F*ED and it's really BAD. Seriously.

Hello, people! There's so much buzz about latest Suno AI, that I had tio test it out. The test told me a lot about the situation of commercial composers and producers and their future and nope - it's not nice and I absolutely don't like it nor I support it. Let's go on a long rant/analysis today!

    Will.i.am is an investor in Udio - I say everyone makes 1200 Will.i.am style songs a month and flood Spotify with it and see how he likes it

    First ChatGPT came for the copywriters, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a copywriter. Then MidJourney came for the graphic designers, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a graphic designer. Then Udio came for the musicians, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a musician. Then AI came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

    I want the iA to clean, cook, build... and people to do arts, and the f****ng market is doing the opposite...

    I’m an illustrator. Midjourney came for me last year and took several jobs out from under me and everyone told me, “adapt”. We’re all meant to scrub toilets while the machines do all our creative and leisure activities.

    Authenticity is dying. Everything is becoming a cheap imitation. Soon I will have a replicant for a wife, listening to AI music, eating a lab grown burger.

    As a game developer I know it won't be long until they do the same with games. Guess I will have to just settle with making what I want to make regardless of AI.
  • @thedandyzebra
    no worries folks, AI is going to replace everyone eventually. the world as we know it is going to change in ways no one can even imagine
  • @abzee733
    Damn, it happened so fast. I thought it will take a few more years and now everything is f**ked already! 😢
  • Let's face it, music was already dead. It was in total decline, something to see the music that is heard today. Full of mediocre artists lining their pockets with shitty music. I am not going to cry for a music industry that preferred money to the mercy of mediocrity. Without a doubt, a tool was needed that would put music on a new level.
  • @johno3672
    if non-AI music stops then the development of music also ends pretty soon, when you feedback the AI generated music into the AI, the algorithms will start to breakdown as they become increasingly generic... I guess they will try to compensate for that through randomisation and some sort of threshold values... but it will go round and round on itself forever... if they aren't able to tell which music was AI generated or 'pre-AI' then they may have some historical cut-off point and choose to ignore new music after a certain date, that could then exclude 'real music' from getting fed into the algorithms in the future... we're in for an interesting ride. But generally, I think you are correct, simply because so much generic music will be generated now, that it will swamp the internet it's going to be really tough for human producers unless they are also performing as a live act.

    I remember in the 80s when sequencers and drum machines were the new object of concern. This is light years beyond that.
  • what’s wrong with stock music being replaced by ai? 20 years ago there were “web masters” everywhere. Now with Facebook, Squarespace and Shopify it eliminated the need to rely on someone to maintain your basic website or shop. And yet, the digital product development is thriving with more $$ than ever before. Don’t rely on making something that is routine and easily replicable. If your output can be replaced by a senseless machine and not much added value is created by a human, it’s a good moment to reflect. Ai will surely integrate into every aspect of life, augment and change everything. Focus on solving more complex, non trivial challenges

    Time to go to nature where we alla belong. Don’t forget your drums. 🪘😉🏝️🥥
  • @issiewizzie
    This was already coming a mile away The AI just fast tracked the death of music making process
  • @amusik7
    Not just stock musicians - very very soon, film composers need not apply. This software can be integrated straight into video editing software.
  • @normjones6916
    So how are we going to use it to our advantage ? is the question/focus, like the wheel ?
  • @michaelmos7497
    Hello Paul, thank you very much for this video. In my opinion, the chord progressions and arrangements created by SUNO and UDIO are already far above the level of many, many amateur home recording colleagues, including the semi-professionals. There is a sell-off of the last bit of creativity going on. It may be a "great toy" for everyone, even for my six-year-old granddaughter, for example, but the situation for music producers is likely to get worse in the future. I think it is increasingly unlikely that you will be able to earn a fair living with your own music at some point. For those who only do it as a hobby anyway and whose songs more or less just end up in a drawer, it doesn't really matter. Whether they continue to put together their own songs or just press a button and have complete songs created automatically is actually completely irrelevant. Conclusion: total sell-off of music, for just a few cents per song.

    Strong powerful summery. Leaders and lawmakers need to hear this. Subscribed

    the massive attack stlye music sounds nothing like massive attack nor trip hop in general, it has far too uplifting tone to it. Scary developments nonetheless.
