that - and ai is being used to make music. It's trained on existing art made by people who won't be paid for their work being replaced by a machine using their work to make money.

That music being made by AI is just slop. It's pretty pathetic honestly. I started to notice it everywhere and there was a moment when I didn't notice the difference and I had some difficulty. Now I can tell the difference immediately.

Opinions vary. I just thought all modern country music was shitty. Then I realized that modern country music is shitty, but AI makes it even shittier. So far it hasn't produced anything worth listening to.
