The problem is using biometrics doesn’t stop the AI from learning how to incorporate biometrics

Love this. With music, we want what sounds good, and that’s kinda all we care about

now we know what intellectual communism is. kinda on the AI’s side for this one. it’s good to show these junkies and idiots that sitting around making sounds shouldn’t have been that profitable after all!
Will, take a pick and shovel and build datacentres.. we’ll definitely pay you based on your sweat n tears.
that’s work. real work. not your garbage music.

Nope. Thats like saying the financial analysis produced by AI, which is superior to human analytics, should be valued less than the slower and more flawed financial analysis produced by a recent college graduate. It doesn’t work this way – value should only be determined by the utility something produces. If I like AI music more, regardless of the fact that human sweat didn’t produce it, it should have more value than the human produced music.
