Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?

0.031 - 16.622 Kim Komando

You've heard me talk a lot about consumer cellular, and there's a good reason. You can switch carriers, save money every month, and still get the same reliable coverage. Here's why I made the switch. Consumer cellular uses the same towers as the big carriers, so you're not sacrificing quality to pay less.

And when you call consumer cellular, you just don't get pushed to a robot or told to use an app. You speak with a real person, someone knowledgeable right here in the U.S. No bots, no scripts, no hassle. The best part, you don't pay extra to speak to a human being like some big carriers are doing now.

Smooth voice. Rhythm and blues. Three songs in Apple's music top 10 right now. One is number one. His YouTube videos have a million views. He appeared out of nowhere. Here's why. Eddie Dalton is a nobody. He's all AI. The company behind him is Krusty Tunes. Same people behind country singer Dallas Little. Also AI. Also charting. Also cashing in.

The AI music market is already worth $6 billion, and real artists stand to lose nearly a quarter of their income by 2028. And millions of listeners have absolutely no idea they're being fooled. This is where music is going. Record labels are experimenting. Streaming platforms look the other way. And it's happening faster than any of us are ready for.

Chapter 2: Who is Eddie Dalton and why is he significant?

206.507 - 242.053 Kim Komando

It's Liza Minnelli. No, she's thinking this is going to be like her latest hit. She's just saying her name over and over and over again. It's her song, Kids Wait Till You Hear This. It's part of Eleven Labs, which is the biggest AI audio company out there. And you can make AI music. And they released their first album, Eleven Labs did, full of AI and human collaborators.

And you have Art Garfunkel on it. That's the worst one ever. Okay. Did you listen to it? Oh, I did. Because I was thinking, you know, Barry's a big Garfunkel fan. I thought, you know, he might like that. And I was like, oh, it's just crazy. Michael Feinstein, 11 a.m.

say the people who license their voice and make AI music through it have total ownership over their AI songs and they can make money off it. So... I decided that since I can't sing and I really failed at the singing lessons. You abandoned them. I got bored. Sure.

Chapter 5: How are record labels responding to AI in music?

314.368 - 322.819 Unknown

Why does it sound like you have a deep voice? You sound closer to Barry White than Liza Minnelli. I don't know. Ask Xander. Xander, why is that? Why is it so deep?
