Extremely busy day, made more AI songs

1:08 AM (of Friday, August 30th 2024)

Today is Thursday, August 29th 2024 and I had another extremely busy day today. Yesterday I had enough free time to be able to watch Peter Pan 1953 which is over an hour long. Today, I didn't even have that liberty since I was so occupied for the entirety of the day.

I still have so many things to do that I still haven't done yet. Almost an endless list of items, and it grows and expands even after I complete some items. There's just so much I want to do.

One of the first things I did again this morning was walk outside. I took another 8k steps again in the forest nearby, and I had different ideas that came up as I walked. One of my new AI songs is now on all music platforms, the song is called The Raven by Megawattz Music. It was created by AI and I used lyrics from Edgar Allan Poe's poem The Raven, which is in the public domain. I basically just listened to that song on repeat for around half of my walk, the other half was listening to some audiobook summaries that I was barely listening to.

One of the ideas I came up with was to buy the lifetime AI music pass, so that I could make unlimited AI songs forever. Like I said, previously I hired a vocalist, lyricist, music producer, artist, to make my songs, and each song would cost around $300 to $600 or maybe even $1000, something like that. One of the vocalists I hired was top notch and she was like $400 per song. The lifetime AI license is only $150, so even if I just made one more song with this AI software, it would have saved at least 50% from the cost of a song the normal way.

I've looked up other music AI software, and found some for only $20 a month, some even $8 a month. So maybe I feel a little ripped off since I spent $150 on mine, and it might not be as good as the others? Though at the same time I also don't feel ripped off, as my license is for a lifetime, and I have happy music results.

Anyway, during my walk I had new song ideas. I had song ideas about teaching Spanish, and even other languages, so that's why I thought about purchasing the unlimited AI songs plan, so I could make these teaching songs.

I feel like using AI is an extreme shortcut to producing songs. Normally it takes years, sometimes decades, to learn music well. It an extremely complicated field, a creative field, so it's very open ended with its possibilities. I know how to play two instruments myself, the piano and the flute, although I haven't played either in nearly two decades, I can still play some of the notes that I remember, and maybe one or two songs for each of the instruments. It's weird that there are things you just never forget. Anyway, the point I was getting at, is music is extremely hard, but using AI really just takes a huge shortcut through it all.

Today I submitted 8 new songs that I created the other day with AI. I submitted them to be released to all of the music platforms. I still haven't posted on Facebook nor Instagram nor X nor any other social media that I have a new song The Raven now live on all the platforms. It's just really tiring to do all that. Even though AI shortcuts the majority of the work, it still takes some work to announce and make a post and everything.

I worked the entire day today. I also had a meeting today, and had even more work assigned. My superior and/or client, these are basically synonymous, said I had new work with one of the projects I worked on previously. He showed me that website, and I was extremely impressed that it was me who made that. The UI and everything just looked phenomenal. I do remember working on it, and when I did, everything came easily to me, and when I was working on it, it felt like an easy task anyone could do. But years later, looking at it again now, it's really impressive. I still have the ability to make websites like that, and I think I'll still find it easy to do today, but wow, that website was just really impressive.

I was stressed when I worked on that website at the time. When aren't we stressed? I don't even know why I was stressed back then. I had almost nothing going on in my life back then. Today I literally have so many things to take care of, it's incredible. I've listed a lot of them already before in one of my entries, it would' just be annoying to repeat again, but yeah, I have a lot of responsibilities. So many.

I also went to the gym today for a few minutes after walking in the morning. I ate some Naked Lunch again, this time I just gave my dad my credit card last night, and since he worked near Naked Lunch, he bought food with it when he came back home.

After work, I worked on producing more AI songs. I spent the next several hours working on 13 AI songs. It's weird, the AI songs come out almost instantly, but it still took me hours to work on them. I now have a collection of 13 beginner Spanish songs, which I plan on uploading to be distributed tomorrow.

I am so tired now. There's still so much for me to do. There's some emails I haven't replied to, with pending tasks that are mandatory for me to work on. I am so sleepy and occupied now.

Anyway, that was my day today.
