“How does music affect the brain? The answer is, in lots of ways, and on multiple levels. From the most fundamental processes that recognise pure rhythm and beat, to the higher analytical regions that recognise and enjoy complexity and flow. That’s why music can so often be such a rewarding and enriching experience.”

…and this is why AI generated music sounds like shit, because the systems lack those evolved aspects of life, which coupled with emotions, create music.

I absolutely hope the AI sector is forced to pay musicians and writers for copyright infringement whilst trying to put them out of a job and devaluing the economic viability of an already repressed industry. You may disagree with this perspective - I happen to want US copyright reform to correct the overly long terms of protection Disney lobbied for - but I’d like you to present your arguments against my position in response so they can be given consideration.

Also if you’re pro AI music generation without compensation, then show me your playlist and prove to me there’s actually people in this world who listen to that shit. I’m genuinely curious how many pro-AI generated music evangelists actually turn off human music in favor of what they claim to support. Basically arguing against paying artists is a morally bankrupt straw man right now and should be set on fire at every opportunity.
