Client ROI
“Country music is perhaps the biggest paradox for AI because the underlying melodies are very formulaic, but the lyrics are based on human experience. I’d be very interested to see how long it takes an AI to come up with [the Bobby Braddock composed] Tammy Wynette song, “D-I-V-O-R-C-E.” Unless that AI spent time in a kitchen fighting with their AI spouse in front of their 4-year-old AI, it probably wouldn’t happen [at least not for some time.] That’s the RIAA’s Chief Technology Officer David Hughes speaking in an event organized by the US Copyright Office and World Intellectual Property Organization in February to discuss ‘Copyright in the Age of Artificial Intelligence’. The transcripts and video have just been published, including for the session focused on AI music.”
