And the flood really is overwhelming. This weekend my mom was complaining about having trouble finding anything actually good to read on Kindle Unlimited. I mentioned that the relative lack of slop is one of the major reasons I chose Kobo over Kindle. Even before this latest AI boom I was already starting to view less content as a feature, not a bug, because it seems that on subscription services “more” is increasingly just a polite way of saying “more crap.”

Similar feelings about Nebula vs YouTube, although Nebula straight up doesn’t have entire genres, or videos in languages other than English, so it doesn’t really work as a general recommendation.

I think the flood is also due to people in general finding AI generated music passable.

I may be in the minority but I like AI generated music. Do you ever really like a song in the current moment and want one almost exactly like that? Mostly for background music. I like to listen to synthwave while working and since I may listen for 10-20h a week, I hear the same songs over and over. Maybe I should be more selective or curate my playlist, but it's just work. I would love a stream of AI generated music in a particular style I can work to.

So why not just disallow it entirely, if that’s the goal?

I've encountered AI copies of songs from popular artists, hopefully this will stop or at least slow that down. I suspect the only reason those songs are uploaded is because people will accidentally listen to it and then the up loader gets the streaming revenue.

Totally agree while being a huge lover of AI music, so much I only listen to my own AI music now. Im not the only one per this Verge article https://www.theverge.com/ai-artificial-intelligence/937059/n...

My songs (melodies/lyrics) ive written since high school are a diary of my life and listening to AI produced versions of them is way more rewarding then listening to other peoples music. Ive uploaded my song catalog of decades to Suno and listen to my life in song (good for reminscing).

Yet, we should not incentivize AI slop and ok mine is half slop for sure! We do not need a flood of spammers continuing to pump out spam. Hopefully all other music platforms follow Tidal!

Sure, but how will Tidal consistently determine AI generated music? This is new frontier of spam.

So begins the Clone Wars...

The real reason is not that people can make money off it, it's that actual people are listening to it.

Let them do, if they like to listen, whom are you to say their tastes are bad ?

> 97% of people can’t tell the difference between fully AI-generated and human made music

I think this is also a reason why X has gotten worse. They pay people for engagement.
