I've trained my little Aliza chatbot to know stuff about Pi Speakers.  I've tested it by asking a bunch of things and it's pretty good at recommending models, options and setups.

Being an LLM, it's much better at digesting written words than understanding concepts.  But if a concept is discussed enough, it can answer queries correctly.  So I think it will give good answers, since it has been trained.

What else is nice is that there is a large corpus of training data on things like dielectric materials, magnetic flux and other technical issues that aren't directly part of the loudspeaker design, but that are important to the loudspeaker's overall quality.  So you can dive into issues like that as well.

I've been making music for more than 4 years now and the thing is that I have followed the AI wave over a period and how it assists in some music production.

Right now, the one that I am thinking about is AI-assisted drums. I've heard about tools such as  Drumnet and AIVA and how they can help in making music.

Some of my friends in the neighbourhood talk about these tools and it has increased my curiosity to the point that I am planning to get one this year. Do you think these tools help producers make great songs in general or is it just a lazy shortcuts that flatten originality? Do songs made with such tools have that creativity part that we all desire or not?

What do you think about it?  Do you make use of these AI drums in your studios? Can you say it's worth the investment?

If you are interested in machine learning, I encourage you to read the link below.  It's a thread on "Concepts Vectors" on our sister messageboard, "Bella Vista Bablefish."

I am convinced this "Large Concepts Model" approach is one of the best ways forward for machine intelligence.  I mean, there are several good approaches and each has its own niche.  But I do believe this is the way that offers the best path towards what some would call "general intelligence."
