===Music as the exemplar=== | |||
If you want to see real AI and really powerful algorithms at work have a look at modern music production software. | |||
IK Multimedia's Amplitube and Tonex emulates and models any guitar amplifier (including your own!), down to the cabinet, speaker, microphone, placement (off/on axis!) and hall dynamics. | |||
Apple's Drummer can play along even with my dyspraxic time-keeping, inserting fills and anticipating bars, turnarounds, choruses and middle-eights. | |||
AI can (and does) exactly replicate Tony Visconti's “Bowie Histrionics” microphone set up at Hansa Studios in Berlin. | |||
Izotope automatically mixes and masters — this is truly a dark art that no ordinary mortal can do — compressing, limiting, dynamically equalising — it even replicates the production values your favourite Trevor Horn reference track. | |||
In short, everything you need to recreate Abbey Road studios: its acoustics, amplifiers, mics, pianos, synths, analogue keyboards, autotune, the BBC orchestra, compression, limiting, mixing and mastering — everything can be done inside a laptop, thanks to the power of AI and algorithm, using software that costs less than a couple of grand. | |||
The better question: why is AI elsewhere so much *worse* than that that currently exists in music production. | |||
<ref>The [[AI]] drummer Apple’s [[Logic Pro X]] is ''unbelievable''.</ref> The tech is genuinely ground-breaking, the user interface is designed to be run by the user without help, intermediation or a “service”; the expectation is ''no [[software as a service|software-as-a-service]]'' ''because the software is so good you don’t need any service''. | |||
