違和感
AIがデジタルの様々な領域を代替し、音楽制作にしてもイラスト制作にしても、今や誰もが簡単に、より深い表現をすることが可能になった。しかし私にとっては、『Dark Seraph』のような作品を作っておきながら、実は少しばかり気が引けている部分があるのだ。

Dear all who seek the sound
AI-generated music —I still don’t know if it can truly be called music.Yet as a form of play, it fascinates me more than I expected. Recently, I came across a comment under an AI music video: “From my hospital bed, AI gave shape to the dream I could only imagine.”Those words stopped me for a…
