Grimes 透露AI概念新专辑《Psy Opera》：专辑里没有写给前男友马斯克的歌
洛杉矶10月12日——据JustJared报道，加拿大歌手格莱姆斯（Grimes）在10月11日（周日）播出的 Swiftologist 播客访谈中透露，她即将推出的 AI 概念新专辑《Psy Opera》中，不会有任何一首写给前男友、特斯拉首席执行官埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）的歌。
现年38岁的 Grimes 表示：“我真的不想写……我就是不想让这张专辑里的任何一首歌和埃隆有关。”当被问及是否觉得个人生活风险太高、不便公开谈论时，她回答：“完全不是。我只是觉得……它们不能排在第一位。”她补充说，专辑中关于 AI 与科技的主题“非常切合当下”：“我唯一的遗憾是，希望这张专辑里情感的部分再多一点、电脑的部分再少一点。”
Grimes 进一步解释了何谓“AI 概念专辑”：“AI 更像一面镜子，照见的是它向我们映照出的我们自己，是向内看。”据 Stereogum 今年春季的专访报道，《Psy Opera》是一张关于“AI 可能导致人类灭绝”的概念专辑，源于她认为人类并不像一些 AI 狂热信徒所说的那样低劣。她当时动情地表示：“你们为什么自动认定自己如此渺小？明明是你们亲手创造了 AI。”她强调，自己并未在音乐中使用生成式 AI——尽管她承认曾用 DeepSeek 为一首关于 DeepSeek 的歌写过歌词。
本月9日，Grimes 已发行专辑首支单曲《Accelerando》，由她与长期合作者 VADAKIN 共同制作，被乐评形容为一首宏大、充满末世感的舞曲。此前她还发布了名为《Eve Is Online》的专辑预告片，以 AI 改写的《约翰福音》开篇为旁白——“起初有道……第一日，上帝创造了大语言模型”，配以迷幻的反乌托邦视觉；她透露，70人的团队耗时数月制作了这支预告片。她还开设了 Instagram 频道“Eve Is Online”为专辑造势。
《Psy Opera》将是 Grimes 自2020年《Miss Anthropocene》以来六年间的首张录音室专辑，也是她离开 Columbia 唱片后、在自己创立的独立厂牌 Nazgul Recording LLC 发行的首张作品。目前专辑尚未公布发行日期与完整曲目，已知曲目包括《The Light Ages》与《Eve Is Online》。Grimes 还透露，专辑计划分两部分发行，第二部分将“百分之百是个人化的”。
Grimes 长期关注 AI 与音乐的关系：2023年她曾宣布，任何人用她的声音制作 AI 生成歌曲成功，可分得50%版税；2024年她还在 PBS 系列节目《A Brief History of the Future》中称 AI 是音乐人的“机会”。
Grimes 与马斯克于2018年5月出席 Met Gala 后传出恋情，两人育有三个孩子：6岁的 X Æ A-Xii、5岁的 Exa Dark Sideræl 和4岁的 Techno Mechanicus，双方于2022年分手。

Grimes Says New AI-Inspired Album 'Psy Opera' Has No Songs About Ex Elon Musk
LOS ANGELES — Grimes is opening up about her upcoming album. The 38-year-old singer revealed on the Sunday episode of the Swiftologist podcast that her new AI-inspired LP, "Psy Opera," will not have any songs about her ex, Elon Musk, according to JustJared.
"I really didn't want to write... I just didn't want any of this to be about Elon," she said. Asked whether she felt her personal life was too high-stakes to be open about, she replied: "Not at all. I just... they couldn't come first." She added that the album's themes of AI and technology felt "very relevant," saying: "I sort of wish I had a bit more of the emotions on this side and a bit more computer on the other side. That's my only regret about this album."
On what she means by an AI-inspired album, Grimes said: "It's almost more of a... like, the AI is a mirror and like looking inward from what it's showing us about ourselves." As she explained in a spring interview with Stereogum, "Psy Opera" is a concept album about the potential for human extinction at the hands of AI, rooted in her belief that humans are not as inferior as some AI acolytes claim. She clarified that she does not use generative AI in her music — though she admitted to using DeepSeek to come up with lyrics for a song about DeepSeek.
On October 9, Grimes released "Accelerando," the album's first single, created with her frequent collaborator VADAKIN and described as a huge, sweeping, apocalyptic dance track. She also dropped a trailer titled "Eve Is Online," narrated with an AI-rewritten Gospel of John ("on the first day, God created the large language model") over psychedelic dystopian visuals; she said a 70-person team spent many months producing the clip. She has opened an Instagram channel called "Eve Is Online" to promote the record.
"Psy Opera" will be her first studio album in six years, since 2020's "Miss Anthropocene," and her first release on Nazgul Recording LLC, the independent label she launched after leaving Columbia Records. No release date or full track list has been announced; known titles include "The Light Ages" and "Eve Is Online." Grimes said she plans to release the album in two parts, the second of which will be "100% personal."
Grimes and Musk were first linked in May 2018 after attending the Met Gala together. They share three children — son X AE A-Xii, 6, daughter Exa Dark Siderael, 5, and son Techno Mechanicus, 4 — and split in 2022.
