It's not obvious that LLM generation won't create more interesting music experiences (for lack of non-marketing speak for self curated music)

Arguably, the camera evolved painting because it expanded the idea of what it could be – that it could be more than the illustration of/"illusion" of reality.
I think and have always thought the exact same thing will happen with generative AI.
The camera did not kill painting. And how does comparing a camera to an LLM even make sense?

It's very obvious that it's polluting and/or killing everything it touched so far though

Have you been to a contemporary art museum?
The camera did not kill painting. There are tons and tons of painters still, lots of them use digital means like a tablet these days but it still absolutely exists.
