Nick Cave voices grave doubts about AI's effect on art

Musician Nick Cave has written in his Red Hand Files newsletter that artificial intelligence could either save the world or destroy it, or land somewhere between. He describes song generator platforms as signs that AI could empty out human creative work and cut people off from the divine. Cave calls AI-written lyrics in his style a grotesque mockery of being human, though he says his view of AI as an artistic tool has softened after watching Andrew Dominik's film Tupelo.
