    Because nothing says “self-expression direct from the soul” like atomized sound waves coming from an algorithm.

    We should stop calling this stuff music, art, whatever. It’s simply arranged static.

    In a recent update, the company says AI music is approaching half of all new uploads, and most of the supposed listeners of those streams are AI themselves.

      It’s free ad money! One bot makes music, 100000 bots listen, and all that ad money is yours to keep.

            AI generated ads, placed on AI generated videos, watched by bots… I guess the products being sold are also targeted to the bot segment of the market.
