In this episode, Stephen and Lauren explore the evolving relationship between AI and music. From the emotional power of live gigs to the soulless smoothness of algorithmic beats, they ask: where does the human touch still matter? They discuss how AI is reshaping music creation, the copyright conundrums it creates, and what happens when making a living as a musician feels more like a tech startup than an art form. Amid all the noise, they find hope in the resilience of artists and the irreplaceable magic of human performance.
