If you’ve tried AI and been disappointed, is the technology really to blame?

Episode 679: AI seems to be the latest thing that everyone loves to argue about. Some people embrace it, while others seem to hate it on principle. But what is it that people actually hate about AI? Is it really the technology itself, or is AI simply the latest example of people being uncomfortable with change? Michael and Blasko dig into the conversation and share their perspectives on why AI has become such a lightning rod.

They also tackle one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding AI: the quality of the results. If you’ve tried AI and been disappointed, is the technology really to blame? Or does the old saying, “garbage in, garbage out,” apply now more than ever? They discuss why the knowledge, experience, and skill of the person writing the prompts often determines the quality of the output.

And finally, Blasko answers one of the questions that’s on every musician’s mind: Do fans really care if a song was created with the help of AI? Will listeners embrace AI-assisted music, reject it outright, or simply judge the final song on whether it’s good? It’s an honest discussion about creativity, technology, and where the music industry may be headed next.

Tune in for a balanced conversation about AI, creativity, and the future of music.
