@mushroom_soup charting pop music is so algorithmic you can predict it with over 75% accuracy.

@sun @mushroom_soup Isn't something like 80% of charting pop music songs made by 4 composers?

@phnt @mushroom_soup years ago it was true, I don't know about today. but there are countless videos overlaying songs that all just sound the same structurally, and not superficially like "there's only so many progressions"

@phnt @mushroom_soup anyway my position is that AI music only threatens bad music because they are both bad music and thus in competition on how commodified it is, which is exactly what commercial music has always done. so human slop music is clearly going to lose in the long run. people crying about the artistic integrity of the top 100 chart lol

@phnt I get people not wanting AI crap injected into every part of the human experience, the problem is that this is just kind of the final step of a century long process of commercial entertainment and the final step is where you realize you were in the matrix the entire time and violently react to the threat of being unplugged.

learning how to play super mario brothers theme on your guitar or singing we are charlie kirk in person is more real human experience and valuable than a top-40 hit
