    Yikes. TIL you think music sounds good based on how much time went into making it, not how it actually sounds.

    Can’t wait for you to hear something you like then pretend it’s bad when you find out it was made by AI.

      I don’t think that’s OPs point, but it’s interesting how many classic songs were written in less than 30 minutes

        As someone that’s more than dabbled in making music, the best tracks I made all came out rather quickly, they still needed a lot of work to finish/polish but tracks that I would spend hours coming up with the core elements would usually be trash and end in the bin, the good stuff would just…happen.

      That’s not really a gotcha though. They’re saying they aren’t going to actively seek out and listen to auto-generated music. If they happen to hear some and like it, that wouldn’t mean they actively sought it out and listened to it.

          Right, they’re not going to actively put time into listening to music generated by AI.

          Hearing music made by AI because it happens to be playing is different from knowingly listening to it. It’s alarming that you need this spelled out so much.

            Don’t know why you’re being downvoted, you’re completely right. I’d never seek out to listen to something with no human thought process behind it
