    1. 8:07–9:32 When Dustin Ballard breaks down the three things people should think about when using AI in music, I agree. He discusses whether it is deceptive, whether there is artistic intent, and how it affects musicians. I think these are important because artificial intelligence can be a good creative tool but people should be honest about their use of it and think about if it could take opportunities away from real musicians.

    2. 4:02–4:39 I found this part interesting because Ballard explained that the song was created entirely by AI from a text prompt. He also mentioned the strangeness of hearing emotion and pain in the voice of someone who never really existed. This made me think of how artificial intelligence can make something sound really real despite there being no real person behind the music or emotions.

    3. 2:16-3:14 I was fascinated to hear Dustin Ballard say that the story about the old blues singer and the song was created entirely by AI. At first I thought the story was true because the music sounded real and emotional. When he told us it was AI, I thought to myself, does knowing how music was made change how we feel about it? I think it does, because I felt differently when I found out that the singer never really existed.
