A short YouTube conversation (host Matt Wolfe and another speaker) exploring attitudes toward AI-generated music using Drake as a hypothetical example: whether a song fully generated by AI but overseen/steered by Drake (voice trained, beat/lyrics direction) would change listeners' perceptions of authenticity and artistic value.
Here's an interesting question that I'd be curious both of your answers on. If let's say Drake, for instance, really got on board the AI train. I don't know if you guys are Drake fans or not, but let's assume you guys are Drake fans. Let's say he trained his voice into the algorithm and he has like oversight. But he's making AI Drake songs and it's Drake's oversight. He's sort of, you know, deciding the beats that go underneath it. He's helping steer the lyrics but the song itself is fully AI generated. Would that change how you feel about this song?
So that's the tricky part. Like if we knew. So a lot of people, once they find out Drake has an army of ghostwriters and this and that, like their affinity for him just goes down a little bit as an artist cuz like oh, he didn't even write the lyrics right. Yeah, that's the big caveat. If we know.
