Patrick Dixon is a global keynote speaker on AI impact on music, author of 18 books

By 2023, 60% of professional musicians were using AI to make music in some way, for example composing (11%), mastering (final adjustments of albums; 31%), or generating artwork (38%).

Music can lift the human spirit, inspire, empower, soothe and heal.

AI will redefine the music industry, creating delight for listeners while triggering outrage in musicians and producers. 

In 2023, The Beatles released a new song after forty-five years, using AI to process an old demo tape by John Lennon which was spoilt by noise interference, just one small example of the musical deluge to come. 

That track was almost universally acclaimed as a wonderful addition to The Beatles’ repertoire.

THE FASTEST GROWTH in AI spending will be in the media industry, and film-making / movie-making is just one example of this.

Total media spending on AI will increase by at least 30% a year for the next decade.

Globally, media companies are already investing $20bn a year on things ranging from image production to video game development, detection of fake stories and plagiarism, production planning, sales and marketing and talent finding.

Every aspect of media production is already undergoing a massive revolution.

Indeed there is no other sphere of life apart from software development that is changing so radically and so fast in response to AI.

Future of the Music Industry - impact of AI, life beyond COVID, importance of live events, spatial audio, copyright protection using blockchain - NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), next generation streaming. Media and Music industry trends - keynote speaker

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Media, Films, Music, TV, Radio, Print - Keynotes

The music industry post-COVID will face meltdown and chaos, then rebound.

Before the COVID pandemic Music was still a $74bn a year industry, despite digital change, and spent $15bn a year on new recordings, ut big labels were already in crisis, threatened by streaming services which already generate $8bn a year in revenues. American music revenues collapsed from $14.6 billion in 1999 to $6.3 billion in 2009, but began to recover after slashing costs.

Over 50% of their revenues in some nations already come from digital streaming, which grew 45% in 2017 in the UK, with overall revenues growing by 10.6%.  But then COVID-19 hit, which resulted in three big changes.  Firstly, more time listening at home, and secondly complete freeze in live performances, and thirdly, great difficulty in bringing groups of musicians, writers, producers and others together to create new music.

Just before the COVID pandemic, 60% of music industry revenues were from live performances, up from 33% in 2000. And live music will return. Indeed the more virtual our lives, the greater the premium for breathing the same air as real musicians, hence buskers on the street continue to earn significant amounts if they are talented.

Despite talk of NFTs / non-fungible tokens, based on blockchains, being used to protect music copyright or in licensing, their use will be very limited over the next 5 years, mainly held back by massive energy requirements to run blockchains.

* "How AI Will Change your life - A Futurist's Guide to a Super-Smart World" - Patrick Dixon's latest book on AI is published in September 2024 by Profile Books.  It contains 38 chapters on the impact of AI across different industries, government and our wider world, including future impact of AI on the music industry, music production, performances, music composing and music streaming platforms.

Why print media still has a future - truth about books, newspapers, magazines and print advertising - why the paperless office is such a last-century idea

Futurist Keynote Speaker: Posts, Slides, Videos - Media, Films, Music, TV, Radio, Print - Keynotes

Future of Print Media and Quality Print Advertising: The truth about print media - winners and loses in the intense fight for attention, in a mobile-enabled world where different types of print media will continue to have a powerful and enduring role in many nations.  And why print media still benefits from an important and poorly understood biological advantage...

Most debates in board rooms about the future are not about trends which are usually obvious, but rather about speed and precise timing. For example, despite many predictions of the cashless society, this year more paper money is in circulation across Europe than ever before.

And while similar predictions have been made about the paperless office, the fact is that more paper is printed each day per manager than ever before in most corporations. Paperless offices are such a last-century idea.  92% of executives print things each day, 45% print 10 pages or more and 15% print more than 50.  As I predicted years ago, paper will be with us for a long time yet, for reasons I explain below. 

The main reason is speed and efficiency - the more senior the leader, the more valuable their time, the more they are likely to need printed material to read or refer to. Board papers or legal documents are two important examples.
