Dr. Dre Says Only “People Who Have Trouble Creating” See AI As A Threat

Dr. Dre said that only "people who have trouble creating" see AI as a threat, and he is using generative AI in his own music production. He compared the backlash against AI to the earlier resistance to synthesizers and drum machines.

You're never going to believe this, but another mega-rich music mogul has arrived at the position that the use of generative artificial intelligence in music production is Good, Actually. This time around, the mogul in question is Dr. Dre, and he says that he is, in fact, using AI while making the music that he will presumably never release. He also makes the same instantly tired argument at Two Shell https://stereogum.com/2507471/two-shell-closer-to-the-sound/music — that backlash against AI is motivated by the same retrograde ideas that once drove backlash against synths and drum machines.
