[Timótheos]

The issue at the moment is that it is very hard to distinguish from music produced by a human and AI music.

I recently came across a YT play list of Iranian Fusion Jazz - a mixture of classical jazz and eastern influences, played with both western instruments (piano, sax) and eastern instruments. The music is mesmerisingly beautiful and haunting. Doesn’t sound like AI at all.

However, when I looked them up in the Apple music store, they have about a dozen albums published, and they all sound very similar. You might say “fair enough”! But they have all been published in the last few months …?!?

So … not sure, but my money at this point is … AI!
Darned …

Nice relaxing sound - but having 12 x hour long length albums published within a 30 day period - definitely AI.

Those who are musicians can correct me, but it takes years and years of study and daily practice to master an instrument.

And each musician's conscience is focused on mastery, giving their all in the performance of the musical piece they will share with other human beings.

That is something that must be preserved and valued.

In my opinion, nothing surpasses seeing a musician perform live.

I try to find old albums by named artists.

I try to find old albums by named artists.

I remember when some albums had warning labels attached for explicit lyrics, but this is a warning label I'd like to see more often...

I say no. These are not AI. If you look at the musicians, these guys are trained professionals in the old ways. I think you're safe. The fact that there are so many albums listed on Apple music in such a short period of time shouldn't immediately be suspicious because when the songs were recorded is not known.
