I understand the point, but I do still wonder. I am peppered with visuals I don't really care about all day long, but when I see what I believe is an AI-generated human, it stands out and I respond negatively. We will see.

Yes, I wonder, too. And short of that, if it just becomes easier to recognize, through some form of labeling, where the line between human and AI creativity might be in a given piece of music (if it exists at all- my focus was more on music created entirely with AI), I wonder how we might respond?

That's a really interesting take, thank you. I wrote a while back about the difference between emotional response (arguably to content) and emotional connection (to art, in your example). I may need to think about a follow up. Here's the first piece: twentysixtyone.substack.com/p/can-ai-cre...
Can AI generate music with emotion? (part 2)

It’s a good point. I think what we may yet see is blockchain and NFT become enabling infrastructure in one or more future provenance/attribution systems.

Thanks for choosing Roland Cloud! I think you will have much fun exploring the past and present, and you can look forward to the future!

And in the foreground you are seeing the read of a Roland System-100m 5 module rack.

I can help with that. The synth is a Rare Roland SH-7. Beside the 808 are the Roland CSQ-100 and CSQ-600 pre-MIDI sequencers. In the rack is a Roland SRE-555 Chorus Echo.
