What Brian is saying is that you don't have to just press a button and accept what the AI gives you. The technology is progressing, advancing toward something much more interactive.

However, I still think you're right, Tom.
There's no discipline. There's nothing "organic". Kids will never question what the machines are actually doing, or how they're doing it. The lure of immediate gratification will stunt the imagination and desire to actually master an instrument...

Sure, there's always exceptions to the rule. But, those exceptions will become fewer and fewer since the machines can out-produce humans 1,000,000/1. What's the point of even trying to compete with that?

Perhaps silencing the competition is the point...
