    No I get what you’re trying to say, the problem is your arguments make no sense

    The number of musicians on the stage is irrelevant. I’ve seen plenty of shows with a single guitarist. They aren’t costing other musicians anything by doing their own thing

    You also are trying to make the point that people “suddenly” care just because it’s AI even though you reference nearly 50 year drama in the same post

    Yea there are parallels between the AI slop situation and other technological advances (invention of the camera, moving pictures, typewriters, and so on) which you are trying to illustrate but your illustrations are misguided. There’s a clear difference, and your strategy of throwing artists under the bus isn’t going to accomplish anything. Not that you seem to actually want to accomplish anything other than making some grand proclamation about society

      I guess to try to make myself clearer, the technological drama I’m referencing went nowhere. That’s the point. The AI isn’t the big bad, people are.

      Yeah. That’s the point of the ramblings : pop music has been shit, and when you pointed it out before AI, it was “hurr hurr it’s your opinion, who is it harming?” (and the answer is: people who actually give a shit about music) , but somehow, attaching the same slop generating human behaviour to a new piece of technology makes it seem like the end of the world. Where was this fucking enthusiasm before?

      I’m hoping that people stop regarding slop pop and people putting up a banana into a museum as “art” and start actually listening to decent music. It’s also an intellectual black hole when people look at a “100% human” piece of slop and call it the greatest thing since sliced bread, and as soon as a piece of technology enters the picture, start vomiting uncontrollably.
