I think it's possible we're gonna see more AI generated songs used in more places, but I truly hope there's not this flood of clever lyrics writers who put out these meandering, unfocused and clearly generated tracks. Basically, anyone serious about the process of creating music will still do things traditionally. However there's no denying that if someone needs a fast bed track for a commercial spot etc can get real use out of it. I also suppose that someone might find real joy in messing with these engines and doing mashups or remixes based purely on generated content. So in a way it's all up to how end users will utilize the tech. Of course, the AI engine is only as good as the training data used on it, so things will invariably start sounding like, "oh, you made this with Udio" or something. The amount of time, data and energy used for training datasets is the work now, vs the work of physical people with instruments. Also I would rather write and perform the song myself. I don't like using drum samples either, but don't have a space for a kit. Ampsims are different; they impact a performances sound, but not the performance itself (eg, pitch and dynamic level). It's a fun toy, but I don't like how AI is shoved into everything now. It's beyond a buzzword and I sigh sometimes when I read more about it. cheers!′!

She'll tell you how you need to take one of your cows to the butcher, have them grind the meat, go pick it up three days later, come home, start making dough for the buns and put them in the oven, form the burger patty, put it in a pan, cook it, put it on the bun - and FINALLY eat it.

One of the best use case scenarios for Udio is for ambient background tracks for audiobooks. I'm working on a book that spans the late 60's and well into the 90's. I need Metallica-style thrash. I need Motown style. I need hip-hop tracks. It took less than a few minutes to generate a wide variety of music. Very impressed.

so far I've done 2 songs on Udio. an emo-ish metalcore song that's supposed have a Saosin-Asking Alexandria kind of vibe, The other I did an old school death metal song. Both turned out far better than I expected they would. The only thing I wish it did was have the ability for you to put in specific artists or albums as a reference for your preferred sound. Obviously it won't let you do something like say "Write a metallica song" but I wish you could put like "Start a death metal song inspired by Entombed and In Flames"

AI music processing has come a long way in the past few years. It was just 5 years ago I did a thesis on making a neural network to identify music by decade and that algorithm alone took several days to run on a dataset of 250 songs. Now there's millions of songs categorized by many parameters that can be used as the building blocks for making new content, it's wild. We'll soon have AI generation be indistinguishable from human performed music; we're not there yet but soon.

Being that most music and audio is created for video (movies, tv, commercials, youtube, product videos, etc...) I'd say the first musicians to be replaced are the ones nobody ever sees, so they don't have any attachment to them. There's alot of people in the Stock Music/SFX world that won't be needed when AI matures. The ironic part is that most of the AI models are trained on royalty-free Stock Music libraries 🤦♂️ Then you'll have the commercial music guy who makes jingles be replaced by the video editor who can just prompt a short song to the exact specs the producer wants and they can save money and cut costs. And then it just snowballs from there under the idea of cutting costs, but never realizing that cutting costs has its own cost. And then the Terminator. 🤣

It's a fun thing to mess with, but I don't see it replacing real performances. Although for background music under a voice track I get someone hammering out a few of these tracks as filler. Edit: I just had a mess about with it, and the drums in heavier stuff sound papery and fluffy, so it's no surprise there. Still, I could have a place for something like this. Not necessarily as a serious writing tool, but perhaps a rif idea or pattern could come up that I' not normally think about. Generating stuff with random prompts can be a good time.
