A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

To he fair, ai slop is better than Spotifys fash podcasts...
It is a terribly low bar, yes.
It doesn't matter how good it is. It could be the absolute best possible music ever, both sensorially and technically, and it would still not matter !
Music is a human experience. Without an artist, there is nothing there. AI music can never be better than human music.
I would rather listen to an untalented toddler's first violin lesson on loop for an hour than to 30 seconds of AI slop.
Y'all, I need some suggestions for alternatives to Spotify, starting to get sick of their shit. The one feature I find difficult to replace is finding new music that's similar to others I'm listening to. I don't listen to music, I listen obsessively to one song until I get almost physically sick of listening to it. So I need to listen to snippets of multiple songs which Spotify does allow you to do. Do any of the alternatives have this feature?
