Wind of change

Over on the KVR Music Cafe forum it seems they are accepting AI generated submissions. As far as I'm concerned, this is a disaster, and if confirmed I won't be entering it any more

There is no musicianship required to give a machine a list of instructions and leave it to produce music from that.

I agree.
If they have the AI generated music is its own category then fine.
That is have two different categories, machine generated and human generated, for a lack of better terminology.
BUT if they mix it into the human generated category then that is wrong.
Anyone can say generate a song about bla bla bla but it takes a human to play an instrument, including vocals, set up chord progressions, etc.

I also agree.   
This innovation is really taking over in all sorts of places.
Over at Kompoz.com where I have done most of my music for the past 12 years there are arguments on a daily basis about it.
People are sneaking in backing tracks produced by AI and claiming them as their own work so often now that is showing to be a real threat to artistic endeavour.
But, it's one of those "can't squeeze the toothpaste back in the tube" situations.
Not sure what can be done about it, sadly.
