A music executive was met with boos when he spoke about the rise of AI to a graduating class.
Speaking to Middle Tennessee State University Scott student, Scott Borchetta, CEO of Big Machine Records, said that “AI is rewriting production as we sit here”, a comment which was met with jeers.
Reacting to the unenthusiatic reception, Mr Borchetta, who first discovered and signed Taylor Swift in 2005, said: “I know, deal with it.”
“Like I said, it’s a tool. You can hear me now or pay me later.”
