Something more alarming came across my radar recently. There is
apparently some program or programs which will make musical arrangements
for people, which they can then put on records, etc. Now if you're just
some guy who wants to play around with this stuff, fair enough. The
claim was that this could replace musicians. Of course that's silly.
But the idea of some complete musical noob putting out a song and
getting paid for it is frightening. Thousands of musicians and
arrangers have spent decades honing their craft and producing
incredible songs. And some pimply faced kid can just punch up a music
AI on his computer and get paid millions for it?

Of course, considering the state of "music" today, I have to wonder if
it might not be an improvement.
