I understand your perspective on it. If AI goes against human creativity in general, why be indifferent towards its usage depending on the context?
For me, I’m not 100% against the use of it when used in a creative context. For example, I think it’s ability to seperate and isolate certain elements of a track and make it clearer for human usage in a way that could never be
done previously is absolutely incredible and something I’m 100% for.
I guess for me, I don’t really care as much if it’s not affecting the main product in a negative way. I don’t really like Alc using it for promotional usage, but I’m not adamantly opposed to it in comparison to let’s say…fucking Timbaland using it to generate something instead of him creating it organically. Something that’s affecting the main product.
mmm..
the track isolation u mention sounds alright because its more tool focused and those are aspects of ai that im more partial to
whereas art work is part of the art theyre selling, which in this case is music. timbaland is using software that is reworking human creativity in the form of stolen production. this isnt so different to me. an ai trained on a plethora of artists' portfolios likely without consent and used to generate prompted imagery.
the cover and music videos of mama's gun may be as intrinsic as the sound of the album to a lot of fans. in 25 years this'll be no different
Not to use the slippery slope narrative but I promise you any artist willing to use AI to generate a music video is willing to use AI to generate a song lmao
People use AI to make their lives easier. Professional musicians can whip up a song like it's nothing, but that doesn't mean they can make a music video.
Niggas really let this bullshit fly
what is this
At the same time though, humans are more complex then that.
Not every person who experiments with AI will use it the way Timbaland is trying to.
I see your perspective, but until that bridge is crossed, I feel like it’s unfair to assume that anyone who messes around with it once, has sinister intention with it.
That's true but I mean we do not know any of these people on a personal level. We do not know their intentions or their philosophy. And if they start just uploading AI generated songs we won't know. So I'd rather just condemn it all then make exceptions
Ngl I'm starting to be more lenient towards AI in art ONLY when it comes to making something that would be otherwise IMPOSSIBLE to accomplish
Example: eminem rapping thru an AI filter of young version of himself to deliver the intended creative purpose of slim shady vs eminem
whether or not that em album was good does not matter to this argument I still respect it despite the AI because it was for strictly creative and boundary breaking purposes.
Meanwhile ye's ghostwriters AI vocals, timbo, and now this crap is just pure laziness or stinginess with the money to avoid paying an animator or an artist to design your art. This is unacceptable and also detrimental use of AI in art imo.
Ems usage of AI was surprisingly great and 100% justified
Because he wasn’t having a computer generate vocals and lyrics for him, he was still doing that himself. He used AI to give himself a vocal tone he can no longer do himself.
Same way I support Beanie using it to restore his old voice before he damaged his vocal cords.
another honeypot thread for ppl to get their alc hate off
love to see it
You’re better then that mate
no im not
those alchemists beats been boring me to tears

Yup exactly
Meanwhile u got ye's lazy ass AI songs on bully
Carti making a ghostwriter give him his biggest hit from the new album thru an AI filter
And this alc crap

I think the best course of action is to create laws that regulate it usage. Not outright ban it, but have a disclaimer of its usage so the listener has a choice on if they want to support the product.
Basically like how fruits and veggies have labeling for GMOs vs organic.
We all know they only used AI to save $$ rather than pay a graphic designer to make this basic ass cartoon artwork
no im not
those alchemists beats been boring me to tears
That falls more on the rappers then he himself
He still makes beautiful beats man

The same day this nonsense dropped, alc dropped a new earl vinyl special edition with amazing art by a small African artist

Which makes me think it wasn’t his call. Took a quick scroll through his past few album release IG posts too and he always tags the artist for them and they’re all freelance artist people who he’s paid for their work. Would be odd for him to all of a sudden just not wanna do that
not gonna discredit him as a producer completely but when i find out one of the rappers I listen to got an album fully produced by alchemist I go :/
love to see it
dumbass
dumbass
im smart and loveable actually

Like who?
Like who?
Earl probably the best example. I need me some more rap songs. Bring the weird chops with the drums back. Love Earl making his own production.
opposite for me
How would it be the opposite?
Alfredo production isn’t much different in quality from what he did earlier this year with Larry June and 2 Chainz
I think it comes down to you not really enjoying what the specific artists are doing on his production nowadays.
Because…it’s not like you’re listening to the instrumentals by themselves. You’re listening to the songs with the artists on the beats.

I’m taking Pinata and Bandana over Alfredo and thats largely not due to Freddies rapping
