'AI can’t match the magic of real musical instruments': Musician Maharshi Raval

In this podcast, SBS interviews Maharshi Raval, Sydney-based tabla player, to discuss the evolving role of artificial intelligence in the music industry and its impact on traditional music forms. Raval, who frequently performs at multicultural community events, emphasised that while AI may influence music production, it can never replicate the magic of live, real instruments. He also highlighted the growing interest among younger generations in learning Indian classical music, underlining its cultural significance in today’s diverse musical landscape.
