[Intro]
Jam #3, y'all
AI
Angels. Imps
Good sides and bad sides to everything
These are tools, but I guess when all you have is a hammer everything’s a nail
Don't let your hammer's last smack be on the nail of your coffin
[Verse 1]
Pausing your train of thoughts just like a comma
To move creativity with my DALL·E Llama
AI's just a tool there's no need for drama
Trust me, soy capitan, pero no es “La Bamba”
I get the lawsuits that say it’s infringement
But who owns an idea? There should be a limit
Particular styles, direct copies it isn't
I'm not a judge or a lawyer it’s not my decision
Generative AI is simply amazing
But slow down the obsession and give it a tasing
This is something to savor just like a wine tasting
Building on top, it's not a trail that you're blazing
Layers to this onion, so take time to peel it
You still need creativity you can’t just steal it
Let’s all flip the narrative, let’s just cartwheel it
A tool is only as good as the hands that wield it
[Chorus]
Angels and Imps different sides of the same creature
AI’s not a panacea or a curse, it’s neither
It’ll only rap better than me when I become its feature
When machines learn as the students, we’re the teachers
[Verse 2]
Imagine a wrecking ball when you have writer’s block
Or nitpicking images, not giving designers shock
Not a ghostwriter? Sorry, a rhymer it’s not
It feels like the Metaverse, when will its timer go off
GAI’s not my replacement, it’s my assistant
But saying my job will end, they’re so insistent
“The end of being creative and art!!” - really, it isn’t
When you realize I'm right you'll wish that you listened
It's still wild to me that since emojis and tweets
Killed the English language, made it so discreet
Abbreviated thoughts are considered complete
Prompt Engineering will be an incredible feat
This should be viewed like every other utility
Take advantage of its strengths and enhance your abilities
Like "cameras killed paintings", that’s not a feasibility
But thinking it's all Mai Tais with GAI, then you're killing me
[Outro]
Technology is constantly evolving and like Arthur C. Clarke said, it feels like magic, but it's not
Y'all making me burst with this gift and this curse. Learn how to use it first before you say we've taken a turn for the worse
Angels and Imps all based on angles, don't trip
Maybe I'm AI?
