Business of Apps has gotten into the geography of AI businesses. The image above is the result of their efforts.
What type of AI use will make it more that chat windows?
In my opinion, the creative side of AI is probably the most important here. While productivity is important, it is art that will make these AI tools truly powerful. It needs to be able to create images of any type quickly and without issues. The smartphone got popular with people because of the camera not because of the productivity apps; that appeal came later not before.
It is because of the camera that the iPhone was able to get smartphone to become more than an adjacent object and into a digital swiss army knife. Such a phrase was used early on and I can understand why. Unlike the flip phones and the older phones, the smartphone is usable in many situations. Mobile banking is useful for many age groups and the smartphone removes the friction which existed on other types of phones and gives you an “app” to do look at your bank account which is important in this age.
Music is tricky area with AI. I have not used Suno as much here but its already seemingly getting on the Billboard charts. If you had asked average people that computer made music would have gotten their attention, they would have been skeptical. We have had sites for many years serving up tracks on the internet and before that in the music stores.
Music is another area where AI usage could really become embedded in our society just as the car or electricity. I do not believe AI will become a “microwave” where it will be there and used for many things but not transform our culture. It will not just be addition to our gadgets; it is going to replace many gadgets we have. In the realm of music, it seems that we have a greater variety of genres and experimentation than ever before in my opinion.
Suno is getting sued by many record label companies. Hopefully, they do not end up like Napster and are able to survive. I think the concept behind AI music is great and can really open people to different genres and make the creative process more interesting and enliven it with some iconoclastic energy which has been lacking for many years in our age.
Creativity I think is going to be what makes AI more mainstream. Productivity is not what gets views on YouTube; the views come from youtubers who make people imagine and cultivate their minds. AI is going to change the nature of creativity and I am confident it will not replace it but augment it. We may not have cybernetic implants yet but this is virtual kind and its truly remarkable to have these tools to revive our civilization.
