On The Beauty and Dilemma of the New A.I. Randy Travis Song

Randy Travis, unable to sing new songs due to aphasia from a stroke, has released a new AI-assisted song titled "Where That Came From," sparking a debate on the ethics of AI in music. The song, produced with his old label and collaborators, uses AI to emulate Travis's voice, raising concerns about authenticity and transparency in marketing such music. Critics argue that while technology can enhance lives, it also risks creating a facade of authenticity, potentially misleading fans and impacting the artist's legacy.
