John Oates, of Hall & Oates, is weighing in on AI.
In a new interview, the musician said he is wary of artificial intelligence in the music industry explaining, “Look at what’s coming in with AI, the possibility that AI is going to be replacing songwriters and artists for that matter. The idea that there could be a new David Bowie album. AI could take David Bowie’s voice and extrapolate and sample his music for his entire career and write new David Bowie songs, and the record company could put it out.”
He went on to say, “A younger generation might not even know. They might not even know he’s dead for that matter. It’s a crazy future, and it’s a crazy, scary world that we’re kind of leaning toward. So there’s a lot going on and you have to pay attention.”
