    Guess I’ll listen to my old mixtapes and playlists for another 20 years.

      Yes. I doubt AI can improve modern songwriting. Well, thinking about it. I think it may. Music nowadays is… not good as it was.

      What if AI could make music BETTER than humans? What then? Just like bots making better cars.

    Uses low IQ genre of music to validate point.

    No one. NO ONE likes this crap.

    Suno proves AI can make hits, but we are opening the floodgates. Just like Instagram saturated photography, AI is going to fill our feeds with generated noise until we can’t find the real art anymore. 😢

      Humans have already made more music than most can hear in a lifetime of reasonable listening time with more still being made. Discovery real new artists including those from 19th century to 19 years ago or 19 months ago. Fall in love with live music or collect old albums.

      I do all of the above and have my favorite old and new artists. I’ll never listen to AI music unless I’m forced to in film production or bg music in YT where I’m there for the content or story anyway.

      What’s “real art”? No, seriously, what is it? Is it just whatever the person using the term “real art” likes?

    • @daShadoSage

      January 11, 2026 at 12:13 pm

      ​@declup what is real food? Real assets? Real body? Real mind or intelligence? Real soul? Real life?

    😂😂 pink floyd, boston, rush, AI shall not pass. Stop allowing AI to fool you. Go back to old school music until we can STOP AI.

    • @nikguitarocphone2505

      for now, AI will replicated each style with the time

    • @declup

      January 11, 2026 at 3:42 am

      Stopping AI would be like stopping Gutenberg’s printing press. Or stopping horseless carriages. The horses might not like it; John Henry might not like it; they ain’t gonna stop it, though.

    No. Dumb question.
    Smart question: Why aren’t carrots called oranges?

    • @BrittanyNCrosby

      You’ll have to ask the Dutch.

      @BrittanyNCrosby William of Orange must be rolling in his graf.

    I create all my own music, lyrics, and I never pay. When my work is stolen; I do not rely on the corporates.

    • @geoms6263

      January 11, 2026 at 12:08 pm

      music is just a frequency, a sound, what do you mean steal it? The music doesn’t belong to you

    • @JPTVsuperstation

      @geoms6263 Where are ~~~ in INFINITY?

    not easy to distinguish garbage mainstream music from garbage ai generated music…

    I hate that a bunch of companies stole all human art and now computers are making synthetic products off that, making artists loose the little income they had, and then journalists are like “is this good or bad I guess we’ll never know”

    • @vm-my6hg

      January 11, 2026 at 10:40 am

      They’ll know when the journo jobs are reduced

  9. @jab16399

    January 11, 2026 at 6:17 am

    AI music will drive modern listeners back to the oldies like AI movie scripts killed Hollywood. Everyone is watching the old shows.

    “Detroit Become Human” videogame has predicted this 7 yrs back

  11. @megavoltampere1000

    January 11, 2026 at 9:24 am

    As long as people know which songs are made by AI I think it’s fine, even a good thing as there’s now more music for people to listen to
