WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.580 Forget needing years of studio time or, you know, 00:00:03.580 --> 00:00:05.940 buying all that expensive gear. Yeah, forget 00:00:05.940 --> 00:00:07.879 all that. Today we're talking about something 00:00:07.879 --> 00:00:10.900 kind of different. Turning a simple text idea, 00:00:11.199 --> 00:00:14.119 a prompt, into professional, original music. 00:00:14.220 --> 00:00:16.500 And this is the big part music that's actually 00:00:16.500 --> 00:00:20.300 legally safe to sell. Like, in minutes. Exactly. 00:00:20.739 --> 00:00:23.480 This deep dive is all about that. How you can 00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:26.399 use AI -generated music to create, well, actual 00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:29.820 income, real commercial value. Welcome, everyone. 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.439 It's pretty wild, right? AI has basically just 00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:34.759 leveled the playing field for making money with 00:00:34.759 --> 00:00:37.399 music. You don't need to play an instrument or 00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:39.840 know music theory anymore. You just need a clear 00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:43.880 idea. So we looked into tools. Music GPT is a 00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:46.439 common example that act like your instant songwriter. 00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:49.340 But our focus isn't just, hey, look, AI made 00:00:49.340 --> 00:00:51.500 a sound. It's about making that sound something 00:00:51.500 --> 00:00:54.579 you can use commercially, legally. Profitably. 00:00:54.719 --> 00:00:56.740 OK, so our mission today is pretty clear. First, 00:00:56.820 --> 00:00:59.500 we'll cover why the legal license is so fundamental. 00:00:59.619 --> 00:01:01.460 Just for important. Then we'll get into how to 00:01:01.460 --> 00:01:04.859 actually talk to these AIs, the art of the prompt. 00:01:04.980 --> 00:01:07.819 The creative director part. Yes. And finally, 00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:10.379 we'll walk through five specific ways you can 00:01:10.379 --> 00:01:13.500 make money with this, from like passive YouTube 00:01:13.500 --> 00:01:17.359 stuff to faster freelance gigs. Let's dive in. 00:01:17.379 --> 00:01:20.239 Where do we start? The legal stuff. Let's start 00:01:20.239 --> 00:01:22.670 with the magic behind the license. Because the 00:01:22.670 --> 00:01:26.230 power here is, it's broad. These tools aren't 00:01:26.230 --> 00:01:28.549 just making background tracks. Oh yeah, way beyond 00:01:28.549 --> 00:01:31.189 that. Music GPT, for instance, can make full 00:01:31.189 --> 00:01:34.370 songs, lyrics included sometimes. It can do super 00:01:34.370 --> 00:01:37.609 specific sound effects like a whoosh or a very 00:01:37.609 --> 00:01:40.829 particular click, text to speech for voiceovers. 00:01:40.909 --> 00:01:43.209 It can even take existing music and remix it 00:01:43.209 --> 00:01:45.510 into a totally different style. And what's cool 00:01:45.510 --> 00:01:47.290 is how they've tried to simplify the tech talk. 00:01:48.109 --> 00:01:50.650 Music GPT is basically just an AI, right? It 00:01:50.650 --> 00:01:52.629 takes your instructions, plain English, and turns 00:01:52.629 --> 00:01:55.019 them into audio. Think of it like building with 00:01:55.019 --> 00:01:57.500 sound legos based on your blueprint. Simple concept, 00:01:57.819 --> 00:01:59.620 complex execution behind the scenes. But the 00:01:59.620 --> 00:02:01.700 absolute core idea for anyone listening who wants 00:02:01.700 --> 00:02:04.560 to monetize, it's that commercial use license. 00:02:04.739 --> 00:02:07.000 Yes. That's the golden ticket. That's the permission 00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:11.120 slip that turns this fun toy into, well, a potential 00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.520 business. Because if you grab a song off Spotify, 00:02:13.979 --> 00:02:15.879 stick it in your YouTube video that has ads. 00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:18.599 Oh, you're toast. Copyright strike city. Your 00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:21.240 video gets pulled. Maybe your channel gets dinged. 00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.849 It's messy. Right. But commercial use here means 00:02:24.849 --> 00:02:27.909 the AI company is saying, yep, you have our permission, 00:02:28.629 --> 00:02:30.810 go make money with this thing we generated for 00:02:30.810 --> 00:02:33.169 you, ads, product sales, whatever. So because 00:02:33.169 --> 00:02:36.729 the AI made it and the company gives you the 00:02:36.729 --> 00:02:38.990 license? You own it. For commercial purposes, 00:02:39.169 --> 00:02:41.550 you have that 100 % legal safety net, kind of 00:02:41.550 --> 00:02:43.610 sidesteps all the usual music copyright headaches. 00:02:44.189 --> 00:02:47.590 beat, which is huge. So bottom line, if someone 00:02:47.590 --> 00:02:49.889 listening wants to sell this music, what's the 00:02:49.889 --> 00:02:52.330 single most important piece of paper or digital 00:02:52.330 --> 00:02:55.550 paper they need? That total commercial license 00:02:55.550 --> 00:02:58.830 ownership, that's your shield. It's the key to 00:02:58.830 --> 00:03:01.430 safe legal sales. Got it. OK. License secured. 00:03:01.530 --> 00:03:03.789 Now, how do you actually make the music? Right. 00:03:03.810 --> 00:03:06.169 So you open up one of these tools, and it's usually... 00:03:06.780 --> 00:03:09.740 surprisingly simple looking. Not some crazy complex 00:03:09.740 --> 00:03:12.580 dashboard like Logic Pro or Ableton. It's just 00:03:12.580 --> 00:03:14.479 a box. Pretty much. It starts with the prompt 00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:16.979 box. That's your command center. And that box. 00:03:17.780 --> 00:03:20.039 It needs a certain kind of skill, doesn't it? 00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.039 I'll admit, I still sometimes struggle with getting 00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:24.340 specific enough. It's easy to just think, make 00:03:24.340 --> 00:03:26.740 a happy song. Oh, totally. That's the learning 00:03:26.740 --> 00:03:29.000 curve right there. Realizing you're not just 00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:31.240 asking for music, you're the director. You have 00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:34.300 to give really clear instructions. Like one of 00:03:34.300 --> 00:03:36.169 the source examples was great. Don't say good 00:03:36.169 --> 00:03:39.849 song. Say, make an energetic, inspiring, electro 00:03:39.849 --> 00:03:44.270 pop track. Be specific, 120 BPM, add details, 00:03:44.770 --> 00:03:47.110 shiny synths, four on the floor beat, strong 00:03:47.110 --> 00:03:49.469 bass line. You gotta paint the picture. And you 00:03:49.469 --> 00:03:52.169 can even direct the lyrics, right? As for simple 00:03:52.169 --> 00:03:55.110 repeating lines about, say, overcoming a challenge, 00:03:55.550 --> 00:03:58.669 use words like rise up or shine bright. Exactly. 00:03:58.750 --> 00:04:00.650 You tell it the theme, the feeling, the structure. 00:04:00.710 --> 00:04:02.610 And they hit the button, wait maybe a minute. 00:04:02.729 --> 00:04:05.389 And bam. Two tracks. It almost always gives you 00:04:05.389 --> 00:04:07.389 two versions right off the bat. Two whole songs 00:04:07.389 --> 00:04:09.669 ready to go. It's kind of nuts how fast it is. 00:04:09.789 --> 00:04:12.409 OK, so speed is obvious, but what's the real 00:04:12.409 --> 00:04:14.650 advantage of getting two versions straight away? 00:04:14.789 --> 00:04:17.870 It gives you immediate AV options and drastically 00:04:17.870 --> 00:04:20.189 cuts down on revision time. You instantly know 00:04:20.189 --> 00:04:22.389 which direction works better. Makes sense. OK, 00:04:22.389 --> 00:04:24.689 so we can direct the AI now. Where do we point 00:04:24.689 --> 00:04:26.850 this thing to actually make money? All right, 00:04:26.850 --> 00:04:28.970 let's talk strategy. The sources point heavily 00:04:28.970 --> 00:04:31.189 towards YouTube for passive income. Two main 00:04:31.189 --> 00:04:35.069 flavors here. Method one. The AI Remix Channel. 00:04:35.370 --> 00:04:38.089 These things can pull in crazy views. Millions. 00:04:38.310 --> 00:04:41.290 People take hit songs, copyrighted songs, and 00:04:41.290 --> 00:04:45.029 just... How? Like changing the genre? Exactly. 00:04:45.329 --> 00:04:47.350 Upload the original audio file, tell the AI, 00:04:47.569 --> 00:04:50.730 remix this into a gentle acoustic ballad, add 00:04:50.730 --> 00:04:53.129 specifics, finger -style guitar, soft violin 00:04:53.129 --> 00:04:55.290 in the background. And the video part is often 00:04:55.290 --> 00:04:57.670 minimal, right? Just a static picture or a simple 00:04:57.670 --> 00:04:59.970 loop? Yep. Static image, maybe a visualizer. 00:05:00.350 --> 00:05:02.529 The trick is the title, song name, but it's bluegrass 00:05:02.529 --> 00:05:05.009 or whatever. Clear transformation. And then you 00:05:05.009 --> 00:05:07.069 spam YouTube shorts with 30 -second clips to 00:05:07.069 --> 00:05:09.069 get discovered. Okay, but wait. We just talked 00:05:09.069 --> 00:05:11.779 about copyright. Remixing popular songs sounds 00:05:11.779 --> 00:05:15.339 risky. Ah, good point. Yes. Huge caution flag 00:05:15.339 --> 00:05:18.560 here. This method is risky. It's a gray area, 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:20.839 legally. Right. Because you're using someone 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:23.500 else's copyrighted work as the base. Precisely. 00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.560 To even have a chance of this being okay, the 00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:29.120 remix has to be highly transformative. Like, 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:31.139 fundamentally change the style, the feel, the 00:05:31.139 --> 00:05:33.060 arrangement. It can't just be the same song with 00:05:33.060 --> 00:05:36.009 a different instrument. So, yeah. High potential 00:05:36.009 --> 00:05:38.250 reward, but definite risk. Good to know. That's 00:05:38.250 --> 00:05:41.230 a critical distinction. So what's the safer YouTube 00:05:41.230 --> 00:05:45.589 route? Ah, the safer and honestly maybe easier 00:05:45.589 --> 00:05:49.810 pass for pure passive income. Method two, lo 00:05:49.810 --> 00:05:51.990 -fi study music channels. Oh yeah, those are 00:05:51.990 --> 00:05:55.029 huge. Massive. It's all about watch time. Students, 00:05:55.110 --> 00:05:57.290 people working, they just put these mixes on 00:05:57.290 --> 00:05:59.569 for hours and hours, three, four, even 10 hours 00:05:59.569 --> 00:06:02.089 sometimes. So how do you feed that beast with 00:06:02.089 --> 00:06:04.699 AI? You get really specific with the mood prompt. 00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:07.399 Stuff like instrumental lo -fi hip hop track, 00:06:07.660 --> 00:06:10.600 extremely relaxing, slow tempo, maybe 70 BPM, 00:06:11.120 --> 00:06:13.819 add textures, soft electric piano, minimal drums, 00:06:14.060 --> 00:06:16.079 maybe the sound of rain outside, little vinyl 00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:18.800 crackle. Nail that vibe. And you need long videos 00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:20.259 for watch time. How do you make a three hour 00:06:20.259 --> 00:06:23.480 track easily? Volume and looping. You generate 00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:27.100 maybe 10 or 50 unique two -minute lo -fi tracks 00:06:27.100 --> 00:06:29.600 using slightly different prompts. Then you stitch 00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:31.399 them together in a simple editor, track one, 00:06:31.500 --> 00:06:33.439 track two, track three, and so on. Okay, so that 00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:35.339 gives you like a 30 -minute mix. Right. Then 00:06:35.339 --> 00:06:37.379 you just loop that whole 30 -minute mix six times, 00:06:37.420 --> 00:06:40.000 boom, three hours, pair it with a calming visual 00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:42.439 loop. You know, the classic anime girl studying 00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:45.000 or snow falling. People just let her run. Wow. 00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:47.839 That could generate thousands of watch hours 00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:50.860 passively. Exactly. Imagine scaling that. Yeah. 00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:53.540 A few channels like that. The passive potential 00:06:53.540 --> 00:06:55.639 is pretty incredible. It's kind of mind blowing. 00:06:55.769 --> 00:06:58.589 So for someone just starting, why is that lo 00:06:58.589 --> 00:07:01.629 -fi method potentially so good for hitting monetization 00:07:01.629 --> 00:07:04.110 goals faster? It generates thousands of passive 00:07:04.110 --> 00:07:06.350 watch hours very quickly. That's the YouTube 00:07:06.350 --> 00:07:08.750 game for ad revenue. OK, YouTube makes sense. 00:07:08.910 --> 00:07:11.790 But what if managing a channel feels like a lot? 00:07:12.129 --> 00:07:14.350 Are there more direct ways to sell? Absolutely. 00:07:14.990 --> 00:07:17.029 Let's shift gears. The next two methods are more 00:07:17.029 --> 00:07:19.350 about direct sales, services, and digital products. 00:07:19.370 --> 00:07:21.870 All right. Method three, selling custom music 00:07:21.870 --> 00:07:25.050 tracks on Fiverr or Upwork. Some more platforms. 00:07:25.069 --> 00:07:27.769 Who's buying this? Think podcasters, small business 00:07:27.769 --> 00:07:30.149 owners, maybe indie video creators. They need 00:07:30.149 --> 00:07:32.329 background music, intro music, whatever. But 00:07:32.329 --> 00:07:34.370 they're terrified of getting that copyright strike 00:07:34.370 --> 00:07:36.310 we talked about. Ah, so you're selling peace 00:07:36.310 --> 00:07:38.410 of mind, basically. Exactly. They'll happily 00:07:38.410 --> 00:07:42.509 pay, say, $10, $20, maybe up to $50 for a track 00:07:42.509 --> 00:07:44.949 they know is 100 % safe to use commercially. 00:07:45.209 --> 00:07:48.050 But to get gigs, you need examples, right? A 00:07:48.050 --> 00:07:50.290 portfolio. Definitely. Yeah. Got to show your 00:07:50.290 --> 00:07:53.160 work. The sources suggest making samples in high 00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:55.680 -demand styles, like that corporate motivational 00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:58.620 track piano, maybe light strings, very common 00:07:58.620 --> 00:08:01.360 for business videos. Okay. What else? A slow, 00:08:01.600 --> 00:08:04.420 sad solo piano track, good for emotional storytelling, 00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:07.860 and maybe a happy, upbeat acoustic ukulele track, 00:08:08.139 --> 00:08:10.180 perfect for travel vlogs. Have those ready to 00:08:10.180 --> 00:08:12.579 showcase. But if the AI makes it so easily, isn't 00:08:12.579 --> 00:08:15.060 there a risk the music sounds generic? Could 00:08:15.060 --> 00:08:17.600 that hurt your reviews? That's where you, the 00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:19.819 human, come in. You're not just hitting generate 00:08:19.819 --> 00:08:22.079 and setting it off. You curate. You pick the 00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:24.600 best output from the AI. Maybe you tweak it slightly. 00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:28.019 And crucially, you deliver fast. Ah, speed is 00:08:28.019 --> 00:08:30.920 key on those platforms. Totally. Offer different 00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:35.240 packages. A basic 60 -second track, a standard 00:08:35.240 --> 00:08:37.419 three -minute one with a revision, maybe a premium 00:08:37.419 --> 00:08:40.340 pack of five songs. Quick delivery plus that 00:08:40.340 --> 00:08:41.940 guaranteed safety. That's how you get those high 00:08:41.940 --> 00:08:43.840 star reviews. Got it. OK, what's method four? 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:46.480 Method four. make and sell sound effect packs. 00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:48.639 No. This one. This is the one I think most people 00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:50.480 just don't even think about when they hear AI 00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.120 music. It's kind of brilliant. Sound effects, 00:08:52.379 --> 00:08:54.299 like beeps and boops. Beeps, boops, whooshes, 00:08:54.460 --> 00:08:56.460 clicks, footsteps, the doors closing, sci -fi 00:08:56.460 --> 00:08:59.500 sounds, fantasy sounds, anything. Who buys these? 00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:03.039 App developers, game developers, video editors. 00:09:03.100 --> 00:09:05.980 They always need specific sounds. UI clicks for 00:09:05.980 --> 00:09:08.860 an app, ambient sounds for a game level, foley 00:09:08.860 --> 00:09:11.929 effects for a film. It's a huge market. And you 00:09:11.929 --> 00:09:14.269 use the AI's sound generation for this? Yep. 00:09:14.450 --> 00:09:16.549 Same idea, different output. You get super specific 00:09:16.549 --> 00:09:19.169 in the prompt. Create a set of five user interface 00:09:19.169 --> 00:09:22.590 click sounds for a premium mobile app. Add details. 00:09:23.129 --> 00:09:25.370 Short, sharp, clear, maybe with a subtle digital 00:09:25.370 --> 00:09:28.009 reverb to sound high end. OK. And you sell them 00:09:28.009 --> 00:09:30.110 one by one? Nope. That's the beauty. You bundle 00:09:30.110 --> 00:09:33.470 them. Create themed packs. The minimalist UI 00:09:33.470 --> 00:09:37.129 pack. 75 different clicks and swipes. Medieval 00:09:37.129 --> 00:09:40.950 combat sounds. Sword clangs. Shield blocks. Forest 00:09:40.950 --> 00:09:43.809 ambiance pack. You package them up. And sell 00:09:43.809 --> 00:09:46.289 them where? Platforms like Gumroad or Etsy are 00:09:46.289 --> 00:09:48.850 perfect. You create the pack once, zip it up, 00:09:49.070 --> 00:09:51.850 and sell that digital file over and over again. 00:09:52.110 --> 00:09:54.389 Pure passive income after the initial creation. 00:09:54.629 --> 00:09:56.809 Okay, comparing those two direct sales methods, 00:09:57.250 --> 00:09:59.190 Fiverr Custom Tracks versus Sound Effect Packs. 00:09:59.330 --> 00:10:00.990 For someone really focused on passive income, 00:10:01.169 --> 00:10:03.490 which one wins? Sound Effect Packs are definitively 00:10:03.490 --> 00:10:06.470 best. Create once, sell the ZIP file forever. 00:10:07.110 --> 00:10:09.429 Fiverr requires ongoing active work per client. 00:10:09.529 --> 00:10:11.090 Right, makes sense. They'd roll sponsor break. 00:10:11.350 --> 00:10:13.409 Okay, we're back. We've covered YouTube channels, 00:10:13.750 --> 00:10:15.789 custom track sales, sound effect packs. What's 00:10:15.789 --> 00:10:17.750 the fifth method? Method five leverages another 00:10:17.750 --> 00:10:20.990 part of these AI audio tools. Offer AI voiceover 00:10:20.990 --> 00:10:23.470 services. Oh, using the text to speech feature. 00:10:23.690 --> 00:10:25.690 Exactly. Most of these platforms have a range 00:10:25.690 --> 00:10:28.370 of pretty high quality AI voices. Different accents, 00:10:28.870 --> 00:10:31.850 tones, ASMR style, energetic announcer, calm, 00:10:32.169 --> 00:10:34.850 professional, lots of options. And where's the 00:10:34.850 --> 00:10:37.269 opportunity there? Speed and convenience, mostly. 00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:39.899 You can sell this service on Fiverr or Upwork 00:10:39.899 --> 00:10:41.980 again. Someone sends you a script. You paste 00:10:41.980 --> 00:10:46.120 it into the AI. Choose the right voice, hit generate, 00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:49.340 download the mp3, and send it back. Sometimes 00:10:49.340 --> 00:10:52.139 you can deliver in literally minutes. It's incredibly 00:10:52.139 --> 00:10:53.919 fast for clients who just need something quick 00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:55.720 and decent. Or you could use it for your own 00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:58.100 stuff, right? Like those faceless YouTube channels 00:10:58.100 --> 00:11:00.320 that just have a voiceover explaining things. 00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:03.440 Perfect example. Saves you having to record yourself 00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:06.629 or hire someone. Okay, so those are the five 00:11:06.629 --> 00:11:09.629 methods, but stepping back just having the tool 00:11:09.629 --> 00:11:12.070 isn't enough right the sources mentioned some 00:11:12.070 --> 00:11:14.730 key success factors Yeah, absolutely critical 00:11:14.730 --> 00:11:17.690 first quality still matters the AI gets you 90 00:11:17.690 --> 00:11:22.029 % there Maybe but that last 10 % that's the human 00:11:22.029 --> 00:11:25.110 touch like what like listening critically Choosing 00:11:25.110 --> 00:11:27.610 the best AI outputs maybe doing some light editing 00:11:27.610 --> 00:11:30.190 and a simple tool like Audacity to make sure 00:11:30.190 --> 00:11:32.509 tracks flow together smoothly in a lo -fi mix 00:11:32.509 --> 00:11:35.149 or trimming silence You still need to curate 00:11:35.149 --> 00:11:38.029 and finding a niche Huge don't just be background 00:11:38.029 --> 00:11:40.289 music guy beep scary horror music for podcast 00:11:40.289 --> 00:11:42.710 interest guy. Yeah, or the person who only makes 00:11:42.710 --> 00:11:46.539 like Medieval Bardcore AI remixes. The more specific 00:11:46.539 --> 00:11:49.120 your niche, the easier it is to find loyal buyers. 00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:51.559 Don't try to boil the ocean. And let's quickly 00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:53.679 revisit the copyright caution one last time. 00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:56.600 Methods two through five, the lo -fi, the fiber 00:11:56.600 --> 00:11:58.419 tracks, the sound effects, the voiceovers, those 00:11:58.419 --> 00:12:01.159 seem totally safe, right? Because the AI is making 00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:03.860 original content under your license. Correct. 00:12:04.340 --> 00:12:06.740 100 % safe. Generally speaking, assuming the 00:12:06.740 --> 00:12:09.840 AI tool grants proper commercial rights. Method 00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:13.519 one, the remixing. That's the risky one. If you 00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:15.419 go that route, you have to focus on making it 00:12:15.419 --> 00:12:17.440 incredibly transformative. Change it significantly. 00:12:17.820 --> 00:12:19.840 Even then, it's not guaranteed protection. Okay. 00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:22.679 So for someone starting out maybe on Fiverr or 00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:24.740 Upwork, what's more important than making money 00:12:24.740 --> 00:12:26.779 right away? Getting those first few five -star 00:12:26.779 --> 00:12:29.559 reviews. Build that reputation. Deliver fast. 00:12:29.740 --> 00:12:31.580 Communicate clearly. Provide exactly what you 00:12:31.580 --> 00:12:33.919 promised. That social proofs is gold early on. 00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:37.240 Right. Reputation first. So bringing this all 00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:40.159 together... This really is like starting a small 00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:42.919 business, isn't it? It's not some magic get rich 00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:46.600 quick button. Not at all. It takes effort, consistency. 00:12:47.039 --> 00:12:48.879 You have to learn the tool, learn prompting, 00:12:48.980 --> 00:12:51.500 learn your market. It takes patience. But the 00:12:51.500 --> 00:12:54.840 fundamental shift is it's massive. What used 00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:58.139 to require years of musical training, thousands 00:12:58.139 --> 00:13:01.639 in equipment. Now it just needs a good idea and 00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.440 the ability to explain that idea clearly to the 00:13:04.440 --> 00:13:06.980 AI. Yeah, your role changes. You're not the musician 00:13:06.980 --> 00:13:09.279 anymore necessarily. You're the creative director. 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:12.039 You're the brains behind the operation. The opportunity 00:13:12.039 --> 00:13:14.159 is definitely there. The tools are getting better 00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:16.799 constantly. But the sources had a really good 00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:19.759 final analogy. Oh, yeah. The AI is like a hammer, 00:13:20.019 --> 00:13:22.679 a very powerful hammer. But the hammer doesn't 00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:25.019 build the house. You do. The builder uses the 00:13:25.019 --> 00:13:27.639 tool. Exactly. You are the builder. The AI is 00:13:27.639 --> 00:13:29.500 just helping you build faster, maybe in ways 00:13:29.500 --> 00:13:32.460 you couldn't before. Well said. So for everyone 00:13:32.460 --> 00:13:34.980 listening, our suggestion is... Look at these 00:13:34.980 --> 00:13:37.379 five methods. Don't try to do all of them at 00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:40.139 once. Pick one that resonates. And commit to 00:13:40.139 --> 00:13:43.059 trying it consistently. Give it at least 30 days. 00:13:43.139 --> 00:13:44.940 See what happens. Honestly, the hardest part 00:13:44.940 --> 00:13:46.779 of this whole thing is just getting started. 00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:49.360 Absolutely. Go make something cool. Or, you know, 00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:51.019 something that sells. Or both.
