You are still thinking of AI in a perspective of “we against them, me against you”.
AI is a helping tool, like a hammer for a nail.
It can help you connect deeper with your own potential, and help you grow.
To find the best version of yourself.
You will be very happy in the future if you see that fear is just a signal, when we understand that it is not a goal. We all win, together.
I trust you with my future, I hope you create a good tomorrow for everyone, with the tools you have today.

You’re comparing a live performance to an AI track and the audience knows the difference between the two, because they can see you.
A casual audience wouldn’t know the difference in a blind listen. Turn the lights out and don’t queue it up with them knowing.
And you took the first prompt to compare. People doing this for real will tweak and take time vetting through 10’s to 100’s of variations before making a final choice.
Ai is much smarter in the right hands folks. This was supposed to prove that humans are still needed to keep the soul (look I agree with that in a live setting. Love live music.) but it’s telling the casual listeners that know nothing to NOt be worried and you really should.

When a singer produces a song it is inspired on human feelings that were actually lived.

“who’s the better songwriter” ?… that’s a false comparison, since AI does not write songs or music, or anything really…. all AI does is produce a form of plagiarism, it literally just takes segments from already existing works and pieces them together in a way that resembles it’s most often encountered samples during it’s “learning” period….. MATH, and various tedious tasks of little importance or consequence are the ONLY things that AI is actually useful for

People may not need artists, but AI needs artists. So, if people need AI, then people need artists.
