What's your take on 100% generated music with no real human input (apart from some prompting)? I hear these songs are already flooding Spotify.

That is probably discussion enough for a post on its own.
I hate effortless AI slop, how it can take the magic of playing an analog instrument and performing live with friends. Between 50,000 and 60,000 fully AI-generated songs are uploaded to Spotify every single day. This is roughly 34% to nearly 40% of all new music entering the platform on a daily basis. So, the margerinization (New Zeke Word) of music is as concerning as the disaster AI/datacenters are for the people and planet.
That being the case, I am loving using it as a tool or another instrument and putting experience I have as a song writer, performer and fan into creating songs I always wanted to, or never would have. I also love how band mates and even people who have never gotten into music are enjoying and feeling enspired by it.
So, 100% AI generated music is soulless slop in my mind. Even though I write all my own lyrics and know exactly what I want in the music from having enjoyed or played it myself, it won't replace the real thing. I love the human inspiration part which we need more of these days.
It’s terrible, and Spotify is indeed one of the worst offenders indeed. It’s just stealing by sampling real music. Literally. The AI is literally using copyrighted material to create “what’s prompted”.
True. I am not a big fan of corporate music platforms and hate how Spotify screws the artists. I do write my own lyrics and you can sample your own voice so it is neat for me to hear these tunes come to life for personal enjoyment. Definitely not for everyone and I definitely understand how people rage against ai.
