It is wild guessing, though many sectors of society do have to make their best wild guess. In my work we have adjusted work flow and setting four times in a month, sometimes changing only over a matter of days (and my employer is the largest health care provider in California).
I made appointments today for early May, and they were are for telephone sessions, assuming we will still all be at home. If I had to make appointments for early June, I think I might go with office appointments. In both cases, we would have to be prepared not only to be wrong, but maybe even, in retrospect, laughably wrong. I suspect AI is making some kind of provisional plan right now for the live shows. My guess is, if they can flex it to June, they would be planning on studio shows with some kind of limited audience. If they need to get it on the air in mid to late May, then some kind of singing from home option, perhaps with an abbreviated structure.
