On its surface, the saga of FN Meka appeared to be a cautionary tale about the pitfalls of music powered by artificial intelligence.
The digital avatar of a Black man with green braids, face tattoos and a sound reminiscent of 6ix9ine was billed as an"AI-powered robot rapper." Though the company that created FN Meka said the character was voiced by a human, it insisted that other aspects of the music were based on AI.Depending on who you asked, FN Meka was either the next frontier in music or a death knell for human artists.
In instances where artificial intelligence is actually generating or assisting music, the questions get murkier."Who makes the decision about whether this goes out or gets edited?" Johnson says."Who stands behind this piece of work?"AI still has significant limitationsFN Meka's music may not have been generated by AI. But for better or for worse, artists and researchers have already been experimenting with AI to try and push music to new heights.
