Artificial Intelligence is very quickly going to change the
world as we know it and the music industry is no exception. The
British Phonographic Industry (BPI), the UK record labels'
association, has released a new report looking into how AI is
currently being used and how it will impact the music industry. The
full report can be found on the BPI's website and makes for an interesting
read.
Creative roles are thought to be the jobs least vulnerable to be
replaced by AI but this reports shows the music industry is still
in the firing line. Large streaming services already use AI to
create personalised playlists and make great (and sometimes not so
great) music recommendations, but how else will it be used in the
music industry? The BPI report details how AI is already being used
to compose back ground music in games and apps and to mix DJ
sets.
