I simultaneously feel repulsed by AI music and "art" and yet am totally open to being captivated by AI music if I really feel something is musically better than almost any human-made music I've heard.

I just haven't heard anything that isn't "slopful" yet. If I do, I will still feel weird about it, but I'm a big believer in the value of "aesthetic objects in themselves", so I am eager to find something I do actually like.

Even just knowing something was drawn or composed by an AI will negatively taint my opinion from the start, but I'm still open.



I do love generative music. I don't care if you get your notes from a markov chain a shif register a LLM or your brain.

The problem with AI music is that is just sounds like shit.


Right. That's pretty much my stance.

I don't totally discount the position that the human "soul" is what makes art art and all that, but I still do think something can be very enjoyable and good without being created by a sentient entity, in theory.


Even AI generated dubstep?

I hang out with dubstep and DnB guys on a UK forum. If they're looking to rave out they'll make something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sq0Pg7fnkAg

You'll notice many similarities in instrumentation, but how is Suno not like a bad RealAudio take on some of these noises haphazardly lumped together?

Or, same artist, different track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhvpCHfe0m0

Don't you need more focus and aggression to make even sell-out weak tea dubstep? I feel the generative process really severely fails to deliver anywhere near the correct sound, even for 'bad artificial lol dubstep' sounds.

Another even closer to the intent of the Suno one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3q_kmpq-9Y


Oh wow that sounds so bad, even worse than I imagined.


Yes
