I'm a fairly recent jazz convert, and there's absolutely no way I would be able to tell the difference. None.
The whole point of ~~generative AI~~ plagiarism laundering machines is to make it harder to tell you're consuming a soulless regurgitation of legitimate talent.
tbf, a lot of pop and generic stuff is incredibly soulless and it was made by people. One silver lining is that hopefully the artistic part will be more embraced in music because the driving force for a lot of it is money and not art. Not defending AI in any way though, fuck that bullshit to hell.
I hate that AI is controlled by a few huge corporations and that it consumes ungodly amounts of resources. Otherwise I'd be completely fine with it. At least 90% of anything is shit anyway and everything humans create is built on what came before, so I think AI just mimics what we've been doing since forever. But as it is controlled by just a few assholes who burn the planet down even faster I am against it.
In my opinion that says more about Jazz than about LLMs trying to mimic real music.
It doesn't say anything about LLMs, they just do lyrics, and they're definitively shit, and you can tell right away.
Image generation models actually aren't terrible at generating melodies, so for genres like Jazz and EDM they make surprisingly acceptable music.
Damn that's racist.

Once you realize all of modern Western music is simplified jazz with new timbre, it makes a lot more sense. (Someone come and fight me about how John Coltrane)
I asked my daddy for a guitar Oh, I begged and I plead I said I wanted to play the blues And he just nodded his head Daddy said when he was my age Boogie-Woogie was the thing Just take the blues, throw out your hip And add a little swing
[...]
Ha! I kept learnin' all the powers my guitar had I made to go wakka wakka 'Till it was so good it was bad Just make a face And stomp that bass And make that rhythm bump This is just the blues But in a way that makes ya wanna shake your rump I can make you clap your hands I can make you get up and dance If you wanna shake your booty My friend, you gotta give the funk a chance
[...]
Metal! Pound your fist in the air! Metal! Bang your head full of hair! Its crunchy and its nasty Full of bad attitude Your parents'll think you're crazy Your neighbors'll think you're rude Believe it or not Its just the blues again You just add a little fuzz And turn your amp up to 10! Music has the power to change your life forever
Just hitting random notes counts as jazz, right?
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
