Erin Perry, a graduate student at the Peabody Institute, reflects on the transformative effects of artificial intelligence in classical music and education. She completed her first year in voice performance, where she confronted generative A.I.'s implications firsthand. Perry undertook a project on a lawsuit involving major record labels and an A.I. startup that trained models on songwriters’ lyrics without consent. Although her school encourages A.I. use, Perry remains skeptical, especially after a class assignment revealed inaccuracies in the A.I.'s output that led her to deem it unhelpful and time-wasting.
Perry is skeptical of A.I.'s artistic applications, and fears its sweeping effects on her field, especially with generative-music startups replicating artists' styles.
Perry noted that ChatGPT provided incorrect information in its summary about a classical piece, describing facts about the piece as either half-truths or not accurate at all.
