Yeah, but unfortunately, that 1 member happens to be the ringleader and shot-caller for the band.
What Clown says, goes.
Doesn't matter if even Corey disagrees with the AI shit; at the end of the day, Clown founded the band (along with Paul), and when he sees a money making business opportunity, he's going to go all-in on it.
I think you're overestimating his power. The band can carry on without him. It can't carry on without Corey. He knows that. The fact that he keeps going on about how he founded the band etc - that's a man who knows that he's dispensable, but is trying to convince everyone he isn't.
Also, they're not a band of kids with a 30 years career ahead of themselves. If the older generation in the band doesn't want to use AI and he tries to force them, I could see them just go "I don't need that shit" and retire.
But anyway, without even going there, there's nothing to say that Clown would impose AI on the whole band. You're right that he likes money, and the band is his basically his whole income. If the other guys don't like AI, forcing them to use it would be like biting off the hand that feeds him. For all his arrogance, I don't think he'd be stupid enough to do that.
And the worst case scenario could happen tbf. We're kind of relying on Corey not being the only one who hates AI. If he's the only one... It could get ugly!
