AI as a Tool for Artists and Musicians – Combining Traditional Art with Ai Technology
By Waqas Asmat, Content Writer – Hayzel Technologies
The modern era is witnessing the revolution in digital creativity with artificial intelligence as the main catalyst. Almost all creative artists are making use of this innovation to some extent. Despite fears and doubts, it is not replacing human creativity but assisting the process by making it seamless. Many challenging artistic endeavours have become possible with the assistance of generative Ai for combining traditional art with Ai technology. How will this change impact the future of art and music in the days to come is the topic of today’s blog.
Reimagine Creativity Standards
When Ai collaborates with artists, it helps in creative tasks such as writing poetry, lyrics, music and visuals. Its most popular breakthroughs are in the field of art and designs, where it has taken over bringing new standards. Many artists are taking significant advantage from these technological advancements. Generative Ai is here to assist and push the boundaries of your creativity by generating new ideas and automate the processes that involve repetitive tasks. Ai can create beats and generate harmonies for you to lay your lyrics and tunes. It can also aid in reading the intricate patterns in music theory. Many changes are expected as an outcome of Ai in the field of creative endeavours. However, this is something bound to happen when traditional art is combined with Ai technology.
Ai and Visual Creativity
Visual artists have started embracing Ai like a necessary component of their work. Tools such as DALL E, Midjourney and RunwayML are a must for any visual artists living in today’s age which combine traditional art with generative Ai technology in a seamless fashion. These are easy to use and navigate tools that do not require a lot of tech savvy expertise, but you can instantly generate images or videos by prompts and texts. Therefore, anybody with a minimal technical background can operate these tools with proficiency.
Ai will be able to develop the same design and portrait that any artist would paint on the canvas using paints, water and oils. It would not be an authentic piece of art; however it could serve as a piece to inspire the true creator, which is of course the painter himself.
Ai for Music Producers
There is a lot of value in Ai for musicians of today’s times. You can ask any person out there that has used tools like Google’s Magenta, AIVA, or Amper Music, these are generative Ai tools for musicians. They can assist you in generating new symphonies, tunes, melodies and even remix old songs to create your own renditions. It would not be exaggeration to say that it is the process of mixing human creativity with machine precision.
When it comes to Ai being a tool in the music studio, this is particularly useful for tasks such as mixing, mastering, and allowing the technical team to relax in those crunch production situations. Now, the producers can focus more on expression and creativity rather than getting drowned in technical difficulties. Music production is the epitome of the 20th century traditional art combined with the Ai technology.
Forging a Collaboration
Common fears that Ai will replace humans and artists and take over their jobs and occupations, is nothing but a far-fetched thing of imagination. People are more likely to paint a doom’s day scenario who do not understand the significance and potential of generative Ai. As a matter of fact, Ai serves as an assistant that is ever ready to serve the creators’ will upon command. It is the kind of intelligent and skilled assistant that does not falter. In fact, it can help in inspiring the artists and musicians in the best way possible by combining traditional art with Ai technology.
The artists that have embraced this change and adopted Ai as an assisting tool in their daily work describe Ai as a creative partner or a tool for brainstorming. It helps in pushing the boundaries of creativity and allows one to see the world of creativity in many different angles that are learned and updated constantly by Ai.
Conclusion – A Brave New World of Art
Ai is here to stay and evolve, sooner or later it will inspire musicians and artists to get out of their creative zones and venture into the unknown territories of art. There are new horizons to be explored with the help of generative Ai by the artists who know how to do it the best way. We can expect new genres of music to come out in the future where the artists will collaborate with Ai to forge a new chapter in the evolution of music and art. We anticipate new theories of music to emerge, and new techniques of design and art to enrich the ever-evolving field as well. Humans and Ai can both bring something unique to the world, if they work together in harmony for a brave new world. This will only be possible when we combine traditional art with Ai technology.
