if no one wants the slop, then its not competition. the problem is that people do actually want the slop and artists are mad about it.

That's not how discoverability works. If it becomes too much of a chore to sort through the swamp people will often just opt for whatever is popular.

Many people don't care because it sounds like music.

It sounds like music, because it was generated by a model that was trained on actual music.

It is music that has been chewed up and regurgitated. It provides no benefit to the actual artists whose music fed that model.
