AI in Music

We are reaching a critical point in tech. Steinberg can’t fall behind or they might be dead. It takes some imagination but the very first thing should be to incorporate AI into the manual. I find the manuals to be frustrating because if you don’t know the official terminology, you are lost. There are many other ideas I have such as a band in a box type AI agent, improvements to the long abandoned"Logical" editor and the midi effects. I also noticed that when making very complex macros, Cubase fails miserably to perform! Very bothersome to me! I will be working with AI to create Logical Editor presets and macros and by the way, why are these not on the same window? The performance I expect will have limitations, not due to my compute power but due to the decades of neglect in developing these features.

Ask AI if there are any threads in this forum talking about AI

I guess this is the first one… today.

Or do it yourself.
As an aside, I have used AI, in other software, such as PaintShopPro. It has it’s uses, but rarely in the generative sense. Having said that, I have used AI to generate spectacular (and obviously fake) thumbnails for my YouTube gaming channel… (Yes, I have one, it has as much traction as my music channel, and you’ll never find it!) (To be clear, the AI thumbnail used my video as it’s source/input, not some innocent’s.)
The creative process, encountering a problem and beating it to a pulp, that’s where the fun is.
Another aside, I once entered a query (prompt?) in a search engine. The prompt was in English, the response was in Russian.

“spicy”, but :grin:

@Cubit and everyone: Large parts of the latest survey are about the implementation of AI. Participate if you want Steinberg to hear your voice:

Yup we are reaching a certain point with AI.
Because all the people telling the truth about it are getting censored.
And the traitors in public service are fast tracking the data centers, despite 100% rejection of them.

When I have a technical issue I open perplexity. It takes three seconds. I want a notepad in cubase that’s worth a damn and you don’t want to have to be bothered to open a web browser to talk to AI?

That’s a subtle threat, disguised as some kind of business acumen.

I hope we’re all aware of the types of people we are dealing with here. Who will require we bow to AI or be destroyed.

It’s the most bizarre and creepy thing, that all of a sudden we have some kind of desperate need for this thing that nobody ever needed before.

I don’t think Steinberg is falling behind. I don’t think Steinberg will “fall behind”.

I wish I could eliminate “AI” from all existence. This world is in a scary time right now.

Maybe the younger folks don’t understand (I’m not saying they should), but things really were better when a person actually had to put some effort into accomplishing something.

Even the CAD/CAM software I use at work, Autodesk Fusion, is starting to bring in the AI crap. There is a big outrage on their forum, as well.

Times are changing, for sure. I don’t like many of the changes.

I’m 50 years old, so I’m kind of in between the old and the new. I liked the “in between” years the best! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hey, please research ‘AI in cubase’ on this forum.

It has been discussed extensively.

Very best.
