  1. I'd hire the best Dr Nick Riviera to augment me in weird ways. I'd also eat bits of myself that were redundant, love handles etc. 

    Build an enormous laboratory to research abiogenesis, robotics, machine learning, cerebral organoids, other cutting edge stuff

    Then I'd run out of money because I didn't invest it and be stuck a half ass man but I'd be happy

  2. There's a lack of suffering in AI art. Maybe if we punish the machines a little they'll produce better stuff? Maybe we already are punishing them, by not believe they are conscious?

    Autotune was the vanguard. I have the strangest relationship with autotune that few other instruments or devices or techniques (I hate side chaining) has caused in me. I can find no pleasure in it at all. Unlike screamo singing, or Casio keyboards use to make happy hardcore, or brown note distorted guitars, or screeching atonal classical violins, or free jazz wailing saxophones, or a piercing 303. All these can be awful, all can have a place, be transcendent even. Not with the vanguard of AI that is autotune. I feel I should be able to get over it, to appreciate at least a few autontuned tracks. But the uncanny valley is hell.

    So the suffering becomes on the listener, not the artist, in a reversal of roles. Much in the same way that social media filled the gap that atomisation had caused, but instead of being the replacement for the pub, the barn dance, the town hall, the community council, it became a Boschian hellscape simulacrum. AI art will be the same.

    The like-minded will still dick about on instruments, and my glimmer of hope is, freed from any belief of ever 'making it big', human made music will thrive.
