I think DJs with even a light catalog of their own original music will become some of the most important artists instead. Nobody has any interest in going back to the old system.

On a similar note I recently deleted a whole bunch of automated tests because if the AI is going to write most of the code then I should test it to make sure it's good! This won't work for all projects, but for my indie games it's a good idea.

this seems like a pattern seen across industries when it comes to AI

even more consolidation and lock in

As an user I wouldn't mind as long as it's attributed and I can skip it.

Pisses me off on YouTube - it's really hard to find something genuine in the sea of the AI written, AI subbed, AI generated and AI published - it's a scourge not because it's there, but because the channels are lying about it AND because 99.99999% of what I encountered it's not worth the waste heat processing a "publish 100 catchy videos about current affairs".

Good for users too; I much prefer a curated selection since I don't have time to drink from the firehose

Why? HN isn’t “curating” the wave of AI-written tech article slop. Unclear if they should, readers here love it!

Hard to believe these models won’t get better and better at producing music that humans want to listen to.
