Technology in many shapes, forms, and devices is already shaping nearly every aspect of your life.

I queried ChatGPT: “Tell me about music and AI.” ChatGPT Response: AI (Artificial Intelligence) is being increasingly used in music composition to create original pieces of music. AI algorithms can analyze vast amounts of existing musical data to identify patterns and generate new musical compositions based on those patterns. This process is often referred to as “generative music” or “algorithmic music.” However, some critics argue that AI-generated music lacks the creative spark that comes from human composers and may sound repetitive or formulaic. Additionally, there are ethical concerns about using AI-generated music without proper attribution or compensation to human musicians and composers. Next, I queried ChatGPT for fictional movie character quotes talking about “music”: The Buzz 1: “I’m not a composer, I’m just a guy who writes music.” – School of Rock, 2003 comedy film The Buzz 2: “I believe in the power of music.
