The Offspring frontman Dexter Holland believes that AI is “here to stay”.Holland and bandmate Noodles recently appeared on the French radio station Oüi FM when they were asked what their stance on the technology is.“I think [AI] is here to stay,” said Holland. “I understand that it’s very confusing and scary.

And it gives people anxiety.”“And the technology of it’s getting better where you [go], ‘Is that person really saying what I think they’re saying or is that just a projection or something that’s not real?

And so that stuff we’re all gonna have to sort through, but I think it is here to stay.”“And I think it will end up being like other kinds of technology where people can use it for good or they can use it for evil, and we’re gonna have to sort that out.”They were then asked if they could imagine themselves ever using AI. “Oooh.

Maybe I don’t have to be there. I could be at home watching TV,” joked Holland.Noodles added: “Well, if we did, we would only use it to change a sound.
