Yikes. TIL you think music sounds good based on how much time went into making it, not how it actually sounds.
Can't wait for you to hear something you like then pretend it's bad when you find out it was made by AI.
This assumes music is made and enjoyed in a void. It's entirely reasonable to like music much more if it's personal to the artist. If an AI writes a song about a very intense and human experience it will never carry the weight of the same song written by a human.
This isn't like food, where snobs suddenly dislike something as soon as they find out it's not expensive. Listening to music often has the listener feel a deep connection with the artist, and that connection is entirely void if an algorithm created the entire work in 2 seconds.
What if an AI writes a song about its own experience? Like how people won't take its music seriously?
"I dunno why it's hard, this anguish--I coddle / Myself too much. My 'Self'? A large-language-model."
I noticed some of your comments are disappearing from this thread, is that you or mods?
