London-based singer-songwriter Samuel Smith is using artificial intelligence tools to finish a new music album after Parkinson’s disease limits his ability to play guitar. Multiple outlets report that Smith had spent years writing songs with a guitar, but the condition increasingly affects his physical capacity to perform. According to the reports, his new workflow relies on capturing musical ideas in other ways: he hums melodies into his phone and then uploads those recordings to AI song-generator tools. The outputs are used to help him continue producing and recording music despite his reduced access to guitar performance. Sources describe the approach as a way to preserve his songwriting process and keep developing tracks for the album. The accounts focus on Smith’s adaptation to Parkinson’s and his use of AI as an assistive tool in music creation, rather than describing changes to the album’s label, distribution plans, or critical reception. The overall picture is consistent across outlets: AI is enabling Smith to transform vocal melodies and demos into musical material he can build into a completed release.
