It's that cringeworthy affected voice that virtually all new pop artists have these days. It's fake even when actual humans do it, and it's equally as bad when an AI fake entity does it. Well actually it's worse when a real human does it. It's sort of like a male version of Colbie Caillat. It gets …

The mystery is what did it base the words on? It must be somebody's content, a diary entry or "training data" right? If not the thing is "actually being creative"...? It reminds of the pleasing nature of Norah Jones. it's like the AI doesn't want to offend, inject any irony or self deprecation. If…

AI will not replace musicians but it will allow people who do not want to pay for musicians to record a jingle, a promo song or some background music for their videos. Most people can't see the difference between a Suno song and something written by a real singer/songwriter so they'll have no probl…

TL;DR: Rick demonstrates how he created a fake indie artist "Eli Mercer" using ChatGPT, Claude, and Suno in just minutes. He generated lyrics and full songs with zero musical skill - just typing prompts. His concern: Spotify monetizes this AI-generated music while YouTube now bans it, undermining r…

Huh? What? I was gonna play in an Eli Mercer cover band. What a dream crusher you are, Rick.

My little sister is having Eli's love child.
Now I'm wondering if the baby is binary or non-binary.

When AI does its own prompts than it will be composing on its own. Then it will have to exercise judgement on its creation, be self-critical. It will have to listen to what it writes. This implies consciousness. The songs are unconscious now, an equation finding a mean through the rhetoric of conte…

Real artists need to use AI to analyze which songs and work of their's is being sampled to make these frankensteins, then continuously file class actions as an organization. Fight fire with fire.

Agree 100%, but what do you do when someone who mastered the instruments, mastered the theory, mastered the vocals, also masters these new tools? For now, it mostly remains a philosophical question, but I have to think this is going to complicate things more. At the point an artist has to bring so …
