Tunes generated by LLM bots should never considered as music.
Same thing my grand father says about EDM. Personally, if I can tap my feet to it, it's music. I doubt you would be able to tell the difference in a blind test in any case.
Sure thing DJGPT, whatever makes you happy
I don't think it belongs on platforms like Deezer but it's silly to not call it music.You can hate how it's made but the bar for something to be music isn't dependant on the fact. Downvote me I guess.
If I steal someone else’s song and put my name on it nobody reasonable would say I made it.
This whole AI-art fucktrain is entirely propped up by people who never made art before suddenly thinking they know something.
My issue is more about not calling it music. Imo, if it's groovy and my brain enjoys it, it's music.
There's some music I seriously don't enjoy as well but I still consider it music because someone does.
That being said, I don't label AI stuff as "made". I'm quick with making the distinction when sharing with friends and stuff. I agree with that part. Although it becomes blurry at times. Making something with samples is still making it, what about making it with AI generated samples? I don't consider it stealing in any case, much too transformative imo.
I think we should separate the platforms but I'm not sure where certain things should land. It's all music for me though.
On the contrary that soulless shit belongs to garbage platforms that is killing the music industry.
I am not debating with you what music means to me, please understand that MR. DJGPT
