about

Is it time to stop marveling at the works of Mozart, Stephen Hawking, Ella Fitzgerald, Picasso, Mary Oliver, da Vinci, or so many others that have enhanced our lives using their natural intelligence? It seems as though society is now being primed to put their faith entirely into AI instead. But, why?

AI has implications for screenwriting, music, painting, design, and other creative fields. But, perhaps the related copyright issues will steer people away from using it. The process of generating content must begin by inputting content, which can be copyrighted material. How are AI companies compensating the copyright owners?

The scenario of how AI generates content is much different than how Paul McCartney might say Chuck Berry influenced him. The listener can always go and check out Chuck themselves, so there is a direct connection. Plus Paul would be using his own personal experiences to channel the influence and create something truly unique – something human.

The excitement around AI is understandable. There are likely some very good uses for it, like perhaps in engineering as a safety check or something like that. But, it seems like now everything, not only creative endeavors, is going to have to use AI. Wasn't the message about Hal clear enough in 2001: A Space Odyssey? Does everything need to be delivered so instantaneously and without human contemplation? Isn't the journey as important as the destination?

This song is a celebration of natural intelligence. May it never be replaced by something artificial.

Inspiration for this track came from The For Carnation, Slint, Nirvana, and Radiohead

lyrics

good morning
had coffee with peace
Beethoven
to make it complete

drama later with
Shakespeare
an authentic voice
to hear

evening painted by
van Gogh
something you feel
and know

like
Prince, Cobain, Lennon, Hendrix
worth more than
some high tech trick

OI
OI

theory at night
on a beam
Einstein
didn’t need your machine
