[Insider] Joe Walsh, the guitarist for rock group The Eagles, claimed that he's not worried about artificial intelligence's place in the music industry quite yet — and it's not because of AI's lackluster songwriting skills.
Walsh, who played guitar on the song "Hotel California," doesn't think AI will disrupt the music industry in a significant way because it can't yet embody the kind of spirit that would trash a hotel room — something Walsh has been known to do.
"It's computers, it has nothing to do with music," Walsh told the AP on Wednesday. "It can't destroy a hotel room, it can't throw a TV off the fifth floor into the pool and get it right in the middle."
