We can relate to this clever Irish Ditty:

Good thing the body comes with a self repair kit.

true, but for the body to heal the âvictimâ needs to stop toxifying the environment and build up its suppressed immune system thru change of diet. Then we canât blame random âdis-easesâ but have to take 100% responsibility for our health. Easier to have the white-coat mafia save us from our bad habits.

Made me smile. âAmusedâ and then thought oh crikey AI might now have mastered our humour and with minimal human help? created art that weâll find difficult to determine which is which human creativity vs. AI.
They have the still photos down quite well⌠the long shot animated AI is still from what weâre shown is a bit sloppy, but maybe thatâs by design. The breadcrumbs method?
Also, reminded me when someone posted another AI entity:
I Got A Song by AI Solomon Ray
Written by: Christopher Townsend [Who is Christopher Townsend?]
Lyrics provided by Musixmatch
I got a song down in my heart (yeah)
And a groove up in my head (yeah)
If only I had the voice to match
Iâd sing it like Daddy said (ooh)
In the choir on Sunday morninâ
Clappinâ loud on two and four (oh)
These words I feel cominâ through my chest
They callinâ me to explore
So I found a tool (something new)
God led me to use (sing His truth)
Now Iâm told I have no soul
Since I donât broken all the rulesâŚ
The AI eyes donât seem right in this one:

Indeed, that song aptly hinted at that wisdomâŚ

Weâve been finding ourselves a little disoriented, lately, with catchy AI tunes appearing on the internet â many of them under pseudonyms of their âcreatorsâ. A few weeks ago, I posted a catchy cowboy-tune rant about the CBC, and it was obviously AI-generated as well, under a pseudonym.
The tune you posted by âSolomon Rayâ is also catchy (thank you for sharing that) â and youâre right, it is difficult to determine which is human creativity versus AI, or anything in-between. With the images, itâs a little easier to tell â but with the music, weâve been exposed to electronic digital midi instruments for a long time, that itâs a little more difficult to discern. My guess is that the really good end products do have a creative live human being tweeking at them, to improve the initial rough cut that the AI tool might have produced â not only in the poetry, but the imagery, and also the music.
In the âIrish dittyâ that I posted, I was struck with how clear the Irish elocution of the words, and thought: Is this a person, or could this be a person-enhanced AI tool giving us clear diction and consonants? I was really impressed by the clarity of the consonants, as I donât often hear live singers with such ultra clear diction (in general), let alone Irish singers, whose accents can be difficult for my ears to navigate (not having grown up in Irish-speaking lands).
So yes, Iâm with you there on the âcrikeyâ â as AI-generated or assisted music is difficult to discern.
Interesting how the tool can be used to take any kind of modern common social problem, and convert it to catchy poetry, images, and music, and bring the essence of the problem there, into the song, and thereby into our consciousness â much like the old folk tunes and fairy tales of past eras.
While I do enjoy songs posted online, even some of the clever AI-assisted ones, that satirize our modern chaotic state of affairs, I much prefer attending a live concert, with live musicians, even if that âconcertâ takes place in a real personâs living room (as, nowadays, modern musicians are finding themselves squeezed out of concert venues, as they are just too expensive to rent).

I remember the excitement with Protools being used and then came Cherâs original âI Believeâ mix went straight to No. 1.
Donât know the engineer terminology but was considered a âbreakthroughâ onto the music scene.

And then there was ABBA who could not reproduce the studio sound of their music in a live concert.
