About this episode

The episode explores AI music generation and features a discussion comparing original songs with AI-generated covers.

On today's episode, the boys discuss the many various goings on in AI music generation. Manny "creates" a few different versions of the NO SUCH THING theme song (that he actually produced without AI) using generative AI, and asks Noah and Devan to compare and contrast original songs with their AI cover counterparts. Finally, we hear from Charlie Harding, audio engineer and host of the Switched on Pop podcast, to learn just how much AI is being used in the music industry today, and where he sees it all heading in the future. Be sure to check the feed this Friday for Part 2 of this episode, where Devan confronts an artist about the use of AI in his music. For more, subscribe to our  newsletter and follow us on Instagram .
