Does #AI have a place in the #music world? Tune in to find out!

We also discuss the impact of #OpenAI's new super-powered #ChatGPT release and their ambitions for #AGI. Of course #Elon makes an appearance with his new bot #Grok, along with other AI developments from #YouTube, #Twitter and #TimeMagazine's best #inventions of 2023 list.

It's not all sunshine and rainbows though. #Deepfakes are still out there, threatening reality as we know it. And the duo explore alternate business models like "pay what you feel" pricing. Could this be the next #Radiohead?

Join Martin and Paul for plenty of banter and insight into the ever-evolving landscape of #AI. Just don't expect any actual music samples, unless you enjoy the musical stylings of sleepy brass bands and heavy metal rehearsals
