Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n We don\u2019t learn what kind of hi-tech wrangling Collier has been doing, but his view is that, at this stage, it\u2019s better to get involved with AI than it is to pretend that it doesn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n \u201cYou can’t sit outside of something and criticise it or be afraid of it,\u201d he says. \u201cYou have to just muck in.\u201d<\/p>\n Collier was speaking in support of the release of The Light For Days, his new album,<\/a> which was created using just his voice and 5-string acoustic guitar<\/a> and produced in just four days. It features six original Collier compositions alongside covers of songs by the likes of James Taylor, John Martyn, The Beatles<\/a> and The Beach Boys.<\/p>\n
