Strange. I would expect AI generated music to be the next medium after albums, cassettes, CDs, and online. Ideally, everyone would have their own private genre customized to your tastes and trained on your feedback and ratings. Maybe Google, Apple, Amazon, and Spotify haven't figured out yet how to collect enough data on an individual level, so they are still recommending songs based on group ratings. When you ask for a song or artist or add it to a playlist, it suggests similar music based on others who did the same. Maybe they need to collect biometric data to tell if the music is something you really like without you having to rate every song.
I suppose it is possible to train a large music model like you train a large language model, but only a few large companies have access to the 100 million songs online. Then you could ask for things like Beetoven's fifth symphony in the style of Bon Jovi, just like you could ask for Tom and Jerry in the style of Picasso. But that's not something most people care about. Adaptation goes both ways. The AI learns what music you like, and your taste in music adapts to what you listened to in the past. But we haven't solved it yet. We still spend hundreds of millions to produce movies where it seems we should already have the technology that we don't need actors or props or screenwriters anymore. The global music industry is $50 billion per year and still produced mostly by humans. On Sat, Aug 1, 2026 at 10:39 PM <[email protected]> wrote: > > Can you imagine?
