A.I. Music Generators

[John]

My wife and I have been amateur song writers for some time, but we never had a way to do anything with any of the songs, so they were just piling up in a notebook.  She did occasionally sing in church with her guitar, but that was about it.  Lately, we stumbled upon artificial intelligence programs that can take your lyrics and create songs from them, and not just sheet music.  It will literally make professional sounding recordings out of your words.  

I am amazed at how far artificial intelligence has come.  I did not realize this till yesterday, but the same kind of programs can write and record an entire song just off of an idea.  I prefer to write my own lyrics anyway because I get it the way I want, and because there are times where I just think the artificial intelligence song doesn't rhyme just right or the lines are uneven, but you can sometimes get a pretty good song just letting it create it in its entirety.  I have noticed a lot of people are now posting songs made by artificial intelligence online.  I have no idea how many were actually written by human beings, at least in part.  

This got me thinking about professional song writers and the pros and cons.  For groups that struggle because they have a great voice and ability to play instruments, but lack in song writing skills, this is a huge help.  The biggest obstacle I have seen among aspiring singers is lack of original material, but at the same time, if a computer program can create songs that are as good or better than human song writers, what will be the end of song writers as a profession?

Good points and a good question there,John,

I never knew such a program existed. This whole AI and what we can do with is quite exciting really. I am thinking of looking up that written song to music program now.

Will this mean that songwriters will no longer have a job in the future? Will we just be able to create our own music, and will superstars become a thing of the past as a consequence?

I don't like AI, it is taking away the human factor. When I listen to music, I want to know the person who sang it. Not as a groupie thing but I want to know who they are and where they came from.

I am mostly using the song generator to pitch songs I wrote the lyrics to, but even if you just use the songs as is, they sound pretty good.  Not only that, but if someone was really lazy and just wanted the program to write a song based on a topic, it can do that too.  I prefer to write my own lyrics, but if someone doesn't want to put in the work, this thing can easily create a song for you in about 3 to 5 minutes.  It is amazing.

I think AI is here to stay. It will be interesting to see where it goes.

I think you will enjoy it.  The program is not free, but it is affordable.  It is like $10.00 per month and it gives you a generous amount of songs you can generate in that period of time.  My wife and I were already amateur song writers, so I love it.  I just pitched one of my songs to a record label.  I have no idea if they will like it or not, but because I have an internet radio station, I have regular contact with people at the major gospel labels.  I actually did write one country song, but everything else is gospel.  The country song is just something based on an idea I had as a truck driver.  I haven't registered it yet so it is not uploaded where anyone can hear it at this time.  I have always loved music, so I love this technology.

Sounds really interesting and worth looking into,John,
