I was just thinking about how I’ve seen a lot of people complain about AI artists flooding Spotify, while I don’t think I’ve hit any through Youtube Music Revanced.
Anyone have any examples so I know what to look out for, or are they pretty obvious because they’re all shit?
YT music may be better but YT itself is absolutely stuffed with AI music. I got tricked by one and listened for like half an hour.
YT Music’s “content”, as far as I know, is just Youtube videos that have been marked/tagged/autocategorized as “music”. So I definitely expected it to be worse than Spotify’s ostensibly curated library (you can’t just make an account and start uploading there, right?).
I think so yeah. But the ones I’ve come across are like 90 minute videos of AI generated “music” tracks.
All I ask is that if we must have a.i., can it at least be labelled and able to be filtered out so those of us that don’t want it don’t get it.
Mostly they just use Suno, and Suno seems to be a big rigged demo that has training per genre, so you get similar tunes and similar lyrics all the time.
brb getting into romanian shoegaze to escape slopocalypse
you’ll get 10,000 records tagged “Romanian shoegaze” and it’ll all sound like the y2k emo indie that Xfm rejected
It’s like this artifact was made in a lab to provoke you specifically
Edit: what should folks call an artifact with no art in it?
an ifact
Hope this catches on lol
