Why AI WON'T Kill the Music Industry

The prospect of AI music taking over the world has been met with almost universal fear and anger amongst musicians and for good reason. But will AI really kill the music industry? Today I want to put all this in perspective and give you some context and the reasons why I believe AI will not replace composers, producers and songwriters, at least not in the immediate future.

Don't get me wrong, there is plenty to be concerned about and lots of risk, but its not in my view, the musical armageddon that some commentators fear.
