Is anyone being paid for the music AI is being trained with? Watch this.

Every day brings another story about how good AI is becoming at generating music, But AI isn’t creative. It’s only mimicking what it’s been taught through feeding it music made by real humans. The question is, are any of these humans who made this music being paid or compensated in any way?

This is going to be a bigger and bigger deal. In the following video, Rick Beato gets right to the problem.  “Listening to this you can see that this is something that people will use in the future. They will just bypass composers and use this. I’ve been saying this forever. Not everyone can tell that this stuff is not real.

“All the digital processing of the human voice that’s happened with Auto-Tune and pitch correction…look it’s easier for a computer to sound like a computer than for people to sound like computers. They’ll just bypass the people and the companies that make this stuff will make all the money.”
