こちらこそ、積極的に質問/コメントいただきありがとうございました。

このツールについては知らなかったです。情報共有ありがとうございました。我々としてはまずはAI生成楽曲のシステマティックな流入やGhost Artistの問題があることを周知したいというのが第一の目的としてあるのですが、確かにイタチごっこなのは間違いないですね。悩ましいところです。

世界99 上 Amazon.co.jp: 世界99 上 : 村田 沙耶香: Japanese Books

村田沙耶香さんの『世界99』読了。読んだ後に世界が少しだけ違って見えるようになる、そんな本があると思うのですが (自分にとっては『利己的な遺伝子』とか最近のフィクションだと『三体』とか)、『世界99』もそんな一冊でした。

Qosmo Insights #4: AI生成楽曲かどうかを判別するWebサイト

<私たちは、AIツールを使用して「大量生産」された音楽が、その出所を明らかにせずにSpotifyなどのプラットフォームに公開されることは、真摯に音楽と向き合う多くのアーティストにとって不公平だと考えています。
そこで... 対象の楽曲がSunoやUdioのようなAIで生成された楽曲かどうかを検出できるツールを開発しました。今回公開するWebサイト、Spotifake (ベータ版)は、Spotify上の楽曲リンクを貼り付けるだけで、AI生成かどうかの分析結果がすぐに表示される仕組みです。>

I am so honored to share a comment on my 2023 book from Mr. Robert Henke(Monolake/Ableton), who has long been one of my greatest inspirations.

I created my first album using his PX18 sequencer, and his Gobi album was the soundtrack while I wrote the book.

徳井直生:生成AIは究極の消費ツール 創造的に付き合うには 長らく人工知能(AI)を使った新たな表現の世界を開拓してきた徳井直生氏。アーティスト、DJであると同時にコンピューターによる創造性(computational creativity)の研究者である徳井直生氏は、現代の生成AIをどう捉えているのか。生成AIの「消費」を前提とした創造性と今後どのように向き合い、使っていくべきなのか。

In my recent interview on the MIT Tech Review JP edition, I discussed how Gen AI has become a means of consumption, accelerating the age of the "average" and highlighting the importance of DIY AI.

Experimenting with Neural Audio Codec this week! I combined café sounds from my trip to Seoul with a drum pattern to create sound collages. I don’t know what to call it... NAC tone morphing?

Announcing Riffusion public beta Announcing Riffusion public beta by Seth Forsgren

"We see FUZZ as a new instrument that can create full-length, high quality songs from text, audio, and visual prompts."

C’mon! That's not an instrument.

Calling this an instrument is like calling liposuction exercise (by my friend Remi)

Replicative AI is a more apt description of “generative AI.” The language matters.

Happy Nujabes (and Dilla) Day! Last year, a stranger sent me this video from 2003, where Nujabes introduced me right before my performance. He said, "Nao's sound is completely different from mine, but he has a positive influence on my label's sound."

Mikey Shulman, CEO @Suno: The Future of Music, What is Gonna Happen? | E1244 YouTube video by 20VC with Harry Stebbings

The interview confirmed my view that Suno isn't about creating music—it's a new way of consuming it (whether you like it or not). Suno has nothing to do with DAW or other instruments. Instead, it's more akin to Spotify—except artists receive no compensation.

The most frequent question I received after my talk yesterday was about the word "ectype," which I used to describe the output of Suno and Udio. Ectype (as opposed to archetype) means "copy but not copy" and can be new and unique but not original.

Please refer to the following:
