How AI Fits into Music Production

Phongsathorn Thammakhan, a Live Streaming and Sound Specialist, led the session, demonstrating how the tool turns phrases into tracks across various genres.

Learning Aligned with Student Demand
Assistant Professor Harifin Wa-ae-sa, head of the Creator Lab at DPU’s Faculty of Communication Arts, connected the workshop to the "Personalized Activity" initiative. This program uses student surveys to identify skill needs and develop tailored training. Harifin said the session met a demand for practical, tech-based abilities beyond traditional classes. “We want students to become Beyond Content Creators, earning income from year one”, he noted, pointing to partnerships with the faculty’s simulated company for real-world exposure.

A core focus was monetizing AI-generated music, with Harifin explaining its use in social media, marketing, and advertisements. Suno AI’s speed and low cost were key draws, and students learned strategies to profit from their tracks while studying. The session offered a clear starting point for applying these skills, showing how AI can produce viable work for digital projects with minimal resources.

Weighing the Challenges
While the workshop showcased AI’s strengths, it’s worth noting potential hurdles. Critics of tools like Suno AI often point to limitations in originality, as the output relies on algorithms that may lack the depth of human creativity. For some students, mastering the tool could require more time than a single session provides, and overreliance on AI might sideline traditional skills. Monetization, too, faces challenges—rising use of such tools could lead to market saturation, making it harder to stand out. These aspects, though not emphasized in the event, frame a fuller picture of AI’s role.
