By Kory Grow, Rolling Stone || Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are both apprehensive about using artificial intelligence to make music. In a recent interview with Billboard, Rolling Stones’ Glimmer Twins said they believed people should use AI only if they put their own thought into it, and anything else is lazy.
“Obviously I don’t want to be imitated by AI, vocally and instrumentally, and the band doesn’t,” Jagger said. “I don’t want people just putting stuff out there that can sound exactly like the Rolling Stones — I think that’s obviously wrong. If someone wants to make music by AI, go ahead. But it has to be original — you have to have your own input and your own thoughts. There are people who use AI to just make a song from scratch, in the style of the Rolling Stones. If you were any kind of creative person, you wouldn’t do that.”
“I’d rather hear something original,” Richards said. “Music could do a lot better than just trying to copy itself. After all, it’s pretty simple stuff — this is not Beethoven or Bach, and I’ve no doubt AI can do that, but so what? We want new input. We don’t want more and more copying and synthesizing. … Surely there’s enough originality without having to copy nursery rhymes.”
