I like how AI was utilized as a tool. It’s pretty cool we can clean up choppy audio and the likes.
However, putting it out as a record implies it’ll be for profit, yes? That feels ethically wrong as they’re profiteering off of someone’s work who isn’t here anymore to consent. Like, the tape was given to him in 1994 by Lennon’s widow. Feels weird to take that, clean it up, and then tell the world there’s a new Beatles record to buy. Yet at the same time, that feels like normal 2023 biz.
I don’t like it. Especially the fact that I doubt anyone else gets to exploit nostalgia with minimal effort for profit.
