Intelligence (AI), is ringing changes in many industries and music production is no exception.
Some South African (SA) music producers and artists have jumped onto the bandwagon, adopting AI as a support tool for their creative edge.
However, not all artists embrace AI and its implications.
Many in the industry are worried about the growing reliance on AI by producers and artists to compose music.
The SA music industry is grappling to come to terms with the impact of AI.
This, as the fourth industrial revolution has significantly changed how music is created.
In the past, traditional instruments such as guitars, drums and flutes were used to make music.
However, developments in technology, have increasingly invaded the music industry, with producers and artists incorporating AI tools into their creative processes.
The shift has sparked debate within the industry, with some questioning whether AI enhances musical creativity or poses a threat to the craft.
