问题     Since American idol star Taryn Southern started composing music with AI in 2017, musicians all over the world have begun wondering about the implications of AI and modern technology where music production is concerned. Using AI in the creation of music is perceived by some as a helpful tool and by others as almost "the beginning of the end".
    In Taryn’s case, AI software enabled her to communicate melodies and chords that she didn’t know how to put together herself. The end product was therefore a collaborative effort, rather than a piece entirely produced by technology. Taryn’s story has a distinctly positive feel that highlights the advantages of using AI in music production. It can serve as a source of inspiration, and as an ideal jumping-off point should a musician be hit with writer’s block (文思枯竭).
    Contrary to seeing AI as a tool, some musicians consider it to be hugely detrimental to the music scene. At the moment, because such technology is still so young, the music it’s producing is not necessarily what we want to hear. In short, it’s not of great quality. Those who have produced their own music, or even fans of authentic, artistic music, will also argue that a computer could never emulate the work (and human touch) of a true musician.
    Music has been an integral part of the story of humans for ages; in fact, the first known piece of music is believed to be around 3,400 years old. Songs have long been used as a means of communicating messages and folk stories, covering everything from societal ethics to world history. Since many people see music as such an inherently human expression, it is often considered as too precious to impart to technology. The thought of a computer generating a "random" piece of music that hasn’t been painstakingly created by an artist is almost seen as sacrilegious (亵渎神圣的).
    Regardless of which side of the argument you fall on, it seems likely that the use of AI in music production will only become more frequent. Our modern world is preoccupied with technological advancements. Instead of shying away from the idea of this bleak future, the best approach to take is one of optimism and curiosity. While there are always bound to be stubborn old-school musicians who refuse to use tech, music producers should consider AI as something to be embraced. AI music software is still very much in its infancy, but with more investors interested in the development and outcomes of such technology, and considering the rapid growth rate of other tech advances in recent years, it’s only a matter of time before AI-produced music is seen as the new norm.
What does Taryn Southern’s story illustrate?
选项 A、AI technology is conducive to music composition.
B、Musicians will be unable to create music without high tech.
C、Musicians are often at their wits, end in their creative effort.
D、AI technology is indispensable to creating melodies and chords.
答案A
解析 由题干中的Taryn Southern’s story定位到第二段。事实细节题。文章第二段第一句提到，人工智能软件的使用使塔琳能够传达出自己不知道该如何组合的旋律以及和弦，第三句进而指出，这突出了在音乐创作中使用人工智能的优势：它既可以作为灵感的来源，又可以充当音乐家文思枯竭时的一个理想跳板，因此这个故事说明该技术有利于音乐创作。故答案为A。文章第二段塔琳的故事只是说明人工智能技术有利于音乐创作，而不是直接否定音乐家自己创作的能力，B项不符合文章意思，故排除；该段最后一句提到，当音乐家缺乏灵感、文思枯竭时，人工智能技术能够在创作上予以帮助，但并未表示音乐家经常会文思枯竭，C项不符合文章意思，故排除；文章第二段的确提到人工智能技术在塔琳创作旋律及和弦时提供了帮助，但这只是塔琳的个例，并不意味着在音乐创作中该技术不可或缺，D项不符合文章意思，故排除。
