It’s not the real deal

British newspaper The Independent quotes an interview Paicey gave to the Press Association. It was most likely done on the occasion of you-know-what, however they have found Ian’s thoughts on the proliferation of artificial intelligence tools more interesting:

Paice warned against the dangers of hidden AI use, particularly when artists themselves are unaware. “But where that information is hidden from people, that’s a problem, and especially if it’s hidden from the artist too. I don’t have a problem, whatever I am is my right to sell or not sell, but it’s not their right to take it.”

The iconic drummer, known for his work on tracks like “Smoke on the Water”, expressed concern that AI could lead the public to believe they are listening to human artists when, in reality, they are hearing “a computer algorithm”.
