Everyone is talking about AI with sites like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and DALL-E. What does the future hold?

We may be just musicians but we started CompuBards, a musical computer repair business, because Andrew knows a lot about computers and has a curious mind. Marc knows a lot about marketing and follows trends. We\\u2019re gonna share our take on artificial intelligence. Should you be excited or worried?

And of course, we\\u2019ll also break down our song \\u201cJedi Mickey\\u201d and for patrons you\\u2019ll hear us talk about our performance of \\u201cThe Orange and The Green\\u201d.

SONG LYRICS

Jedi Mickey

by Marc Gunn and Andrew McKee

A long time ago, a tugboat faraway.
Mickey whistled out a tune while bouncing away
He turned color after one too many drinks
Then called up Lucas saying, \\u201cHaha!\\xa0 Dude... your writing stinks!\\u201d

When Mickey sobered up, he called the board to plan,
"I\'ve had a vision, a lightsaber in my hand
We\'ll make Star Wars as we wish upon a star
And will do it far better with a story by Pixar. Haha!"

[to the tune When you Wish upon a Star]

When the mouse wants your franchise
He\'ll start off licensing for rides.
If you\'re tired and you need some cash
He\'ll buy from you......

One part mouse and one part duck
One part Jedi and formulaic luck
A Wookie on my right and a Goofy one on my left
Merging these two companies... is the big test

There\'s a star destroyer shaped like a mushroom house
The Beagle boys stand before a Sith Lord mouse
While far away a Jedi Mouse stares into space
The three moons of Tatooine replaced... by Mickey\'s face

Mickey meets Minnie. The force is strong with her.
He lays a kiss on her, and the fans all hurl
Minnie is his sister and that folks is a shame
Our love for those mice will never... be the same

Mickey stabs the Sith. The dark mouse disappears
Wherever there\'s one Sith Lord, another will appear
A duck steps forward with a cloak as black as ink
With Jedi mice and ducks, I\'ll need... a stronger drink.
