• I can still feel some kind of emotion through it. The emotion may just be greed, but it’s at least something. AI generated music doesn’t even have the soul of slime. It gives nothing. It feels like nothing. It’s completely empty and hollow instead of just mostly.

      Ok, I’m pretty sure seeing a sunset behind a forest will also give you a kind of emotion as well. Who is the artist there?

      Art is like a greasy mirror, there may be some intent there by the artist, but mostly you see yourself and your own feelings in the work.

      Also, the AI generated music doesn’t come from nothing, someone is communicating an idea to the computer which then, based on as much human music as it has consumed, tries to give back something that sounds like what the original person intended. it’s not just a magic “music button”.

      So with the AI music, there’s an expression and emotion you can feel coming from the original person (alongside the thousands of other people whose work has been fed into the machine)

      If you don’t like it sure.

        I did not say it gives me emotions. I am a super empath; I can feel the emotion put into the work from the artist. AI created shit completely lacks anything to empathize with. There is no soul to feel. The promot given to the AI does not pass anything through into the generated creation.

          Sure, whatever. I don’t think that you can tell the difference in a blind test, especially with instrumental music or something like Kraftwerk, but I am willing to assume your subjective sensations are subjective.

          Even in that circumstance, the point isn’t that the AI music is “Just as good” it’s “people have been shoveling feelingless, useless slop for decades, and when the audience freaks out about AI being shitty, it rings hollow”.
