The title track of their album is about AI. “My philosophy on it was, okay, I’m going to write songs that are meaningful in the moment, right?” she told host Jimmy Fallon. He explained that he wrote “Evolution” about AI because “it’s been very disturbing” to her.
“I did a session the other day and this young songwriter had an amazing song, but she needed a guy to sing it so she could present it to male singers in Nashville,” Sheryl said on the show. “I paid $5, put in the name John Mayer and she gave it to me. There is no way you can tell the difference and she just blew me away. And it didn’t just sound like him, I mean, like his inflections.”
The singer reflected on why she feels so uncomfortable with the combination of AI and music.
“For me, art is like the soul, it is linked to the soul,” Sheryl said. “So when you get into something that’s way more advanced than our brain right now, it takes your soul away, you know, and it’s scary.”
On Friday (November 3), Sheryl became a member of the Hall of Fame in the 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Her fellow inductees included Missy Elliott, Kate Bush and more.
