Grimes has discussed the impact AI could have on the future of music during an appearance in a new docuseries.The singer was interviewed for the new six-part Ari Wallach series A Brief History Of The Future, which uses “history, science, and unexpected storytelling to expand our understanding about the impact that the choices we make today will have on our tomorrows.”“I think because we’re all alive, we all take it for granted that I can think and I have agency and I can feel,” Grimes began. “I think the universe is empty and quiet and it wants to be woken up and filled with beautiful things.”She went on to discuss how technology has already changed the landscape of the music world, with advancements allowing people to make music from their bedrooms.
“When I started making music, there was sort of this revolution happening in music production, more people were being able to make music at home on their computers and I think there was a massive democratisation of who was allowed to make music that, like, I took huge advantage of. That was fully the byproduct of technology.”She then connects this to the potential for shifts to take place with the help of AI.
