Claire Elise Boucher, Canadian musician professionally known as Grimes, recently made inconvenient headlines for saying on a podcast that Artificial Intelligence would soon replace humans in music-making and mark the end of manmade art. She is now back to present her new single “My Name Is Dark” that will arrive on her forthcoming Miss Anthropocene album on February 21st next year.
Listen to the follow-up to “So heavy,” “Violence”, and last year “We Appreciate Power” below.
After her statement went viral, to contradict, Holly Herndon penned her thoughts on why AI could never truly replace human performance in her essay, following Zola Jesus’ refutation—who described her as “the voice of silicon fascist privilege”—against Grimes’ claims.
