Back in September, I had the chance to sit down with Music.AI for a conversation about AI, music, and what it means for composers and creators navigating a rapidly shifting landscape. We touched on topics like commercial AI music tools, authorship, ethics, and how musicians can think strategically about their creative identities as these technologies become more common. It was a thoughtful exchange that reflects the kinds of questions many musicians, particulary students and young artists, are dealing with right now, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the discussion.
