Non-Music AI for Musicians and Industry Professionals
So much has been written about using AI to make music that it’s easy to forget that non-music AI has other uses that can make the lives of musicians and industry professionals more productive.
Non-Music AI for Musicians and Industry Professionals
On a new Music Business Weekly Podcast, Michael Brandvold and Jay Gilbert share how they are using AI.
They don’t discuss using AI to record music or make videos or even graphics. They do share how to use AI to do real tasks, tasks that you probably struggle with right now.
Examples include:
- Reviewing contracts and complex documents
- Transcribe audio or video for things like finding quotes for a press kit
- Pull text from screen captures
- Proofread bios and other text
- Rewrite text. For example: “Summarize this 2 page bio into two or three short paragraphs.”
- Ask it questions like “I’m a musician. How can I use AI to help book a tour?” or “Is Threads growing as a platform and how does it different from X?”
- Test it for any repetitive task
They also discuss Bobby Owsinki’s Musician’s Ai Handbook. It’s a comprehensive guide that shows musicians, artists, songwriters, producers, and anyone in the music business how to use artificial intelligence as a highly creative tool to generate new ideas, polish their productions, and help to promote their music.

This is a great reminder that AI isn’t just for making music! Musicians and industry professionals can leverage non-music AI tools in so many practical ways to streamline their work and enhance productivity. From reviewing contracts to transcribing audio, AI can save time on tasks that often eat up a lot of bandwidth. The ability to rewrite text, proofread bios, or even summarize lengthy documents is a game-changer. Plus, it’s fantastic that the discussion highlights Bobby Owsinski’s guide—offering musicians a roadmap to use AI creatively to elevate their projects. It’s exciting to see how AI is supporting the business side of the music industry as well!
