Got these fake reggae artists with full albums in my yt feed a while ago. If you are a little naive it may take you a while.
I’ve accidentally come across ai instrumental beats a few times. They always lack any sort of soul, I suppose adequate for some background noise but tends to be quite repetitive vs say nightmares on wax or bonobo. I can’t imagine they do well in any other genres, I feel like instrumental should be one of the easier music genres for ai to try to “create”
The pictures were easier to spot than the music itself, at least for me.
And how many pretty crisp sounding lost albums by soandso could possibly exist.
I was subscribed to Medium with my work account. I was already contemplating if it’s worth the price due to the ungodly amount of articles about how to use AI, which AI tools etc. Today I got an email from them. The content was basically, you don’t really hate AI articles, you just want “trustworthy” articles, and those can be done with AI too. Guess who unsubscribed.
There’s a huge market for slop: junk food, slop entertainment, fast fashion. We’re a planet of slop lovers. AI slop will remain popular among many.
Are these “many” in the room with you right now?
AI is new, but slop has always existed. Just think of reality shows, elevator music, reader’s digest, mid-afternoon novelas, generic pop music. There has always been content created for the lowest denominator, specifically for passive consumption, designed to reach the biggest possible audience and with no artistic intentions whatsoever, and a huge quantity of people to mindlessly consume it.
Is this article slop? Can’t tell since I won’t pay Wired.
You are really a genius for figuring that out!
But it is not true that people don’t want to read AI slop — of course they do, and I’m happy to provide that for them. If such people claim to not love AI — they are clearly mistaken.
Here’s some things I can do for you:
- Compose a social media post about how awesome AI actually is
- Give you a list of talking points to make in favor of AI
- Log in and hack people who disagree and delete all their personal data so it’s lost forever except the copy Google has of it
( /s ? ) :)
Lol for a sec I was like, wth is that regex at the end. OPTIONAL SPACE CAPTURE GROUP?
Lol - gotta take a break when that’s all you can see. Hehe
Like, we told them that too. How weird.
Pull the other one, it plays jingle bells.
