I don't fucking want "infinite personalized music", I want music conceptualized, created, and played by human beings. (thelemmy.club)

is AI music very good though? good at what? at generic arrangements that render special into regular?

    AI is now admittedly pretty good at making perfectly passable music, but the whole point of music is it's humanity. Music expresses emotion and feelings and connects the listener to the artist. It creates shared culture between fans.

    AI music is interesting to me on a purely technical level and is more than acceptable background noise, but it'll never be more than that.

    I don't want some infinite procedural music that will have no lasting effect past the first listen, no shared context between others. What's the point?

    passable doesn't mean it's any better than a literal placeholder of something that should've been done. there is an entire field of computer music and specifically algorithmic music that makes AI music sound like it's not worth the hassle. Iannis Xenakis can fuck you up for real!

    Not defending AI music, it can go and fuck itself no matter how neat of a trick it is. But let's not pretend that world wasn't already full of "placeholder" music from vacuous pop artists and some people who genuinely believed they had a personality.
