Actually many discussions running, if voices should generated with AI (Artificial Intelligence), for example also from dead singers and actors? For myself i´m no a supporter of such things. It feels for me like playing Frankenstein.
But I´m interested, whether there are other opininions on this board, people which can imagine, that new material of Bing-songs were "recorded"?
Everybody knows, that Bings voice changed through the decades of his lifetime, for example the wonderful high tones of the early 30th, his voice of the 40th or the deepness of the late 50th, or the remakable voice of his last years (at his best recordings). With AI you could select a period of Bing, in which you wishes to hear special songs with Bing and add an arrangement, for example in a nostalgic way, in a Nelson Riddle way or in a total modern present way. You can maybe create old Bing recordings in another new arrangement and Bing in top of his voice. You can join together Bing with different duet partners, like the Beatles or Elvis, singing with Bing Blue Hawaii. All types of songs would be- thanks AI- possible, although material, which was composed after Bings death. The "new" Bing as rapper. Sometimes i´m thinking Bings voice for a rapsong would be optimal because of his melodic sound of his speaking voice. All the songs some wished, that Bing would have recorded officially, but never sung or only in radio or TV,partly in short snips( like Moonriver, I Left My Heart In San Francisco, And I Love Her, Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head).
I missed something, but I have thankfully so much masses of fine matererial of Bing! As I said before, I don´t like Bing in an artificial way. But could AI make Bing fit and actual for future generations, for a second carrier?
Some plan even films with AI. Bing and Bob with a very young Dottie in the canceled The Road to a Youth Fountain? So far I know, most of you are very sceptical about this last film project, which was stopped because of Bings death.
Do you have another , your own opinion to this topic?
