I’ve been “got” about 4 times on TikTok so far. I’ll hear a song which has been jazzified and I’ll jam along. I then open the comments and see the slow dancing baby GIF and realise it was AI. Aerosmith and NSYNC songs seem to be the go to for AI creators.

Yes. There are 3 AI songs on the top 50 most popular list on Spotify

Deezer, another music streaming platform, recently stated they get 60.000 AI generated songs uploaded to their platform **every day**. 39% of music on Deezer is AI generated. The situation is beyond messed up. But there are seemingly a lot of tasteless schmucks that think this is somehow a net positive for humanity…

Almost everyone associated with Silicon Valley is a complete loser. As soon as those nerds got any sort of money and respect they turned into wannabe Wall Street traders. The world was a better place when it was ran by empty suits because at least they had a life and a shred self confidence.

And? Is this supposed to be controversial? Pretty sure even the AI content creators know this to be true. They know they are frauds. And the sad thing their content is absolute trash but it still has a audience so to me that audience is worse than the AI hacks. That is what you watch? That is what you like? Well I look down on that. Openly without remorse.

I would like it perhaps to the advent of photography, when before, we had thousands of years of talented painters. Wanted a family portrait? Had to hire a painter and pay them a ton of money and take days/weeks of your time posing to get it. Wanted a picture of a beautiful mountainside in your village? Had to pay a painter a ton of money to paint it for you, or spend a lot of money going to art school and get really talented at painting yourself. Then photography came along and it was BAM...portraits were done in minutes at practically no cost. Same thing with the mountains. Were the photographs as "artistic" and take anywhere near the talent to produce? Nope. But it served a purpose, and as a result, painters had to evolve and stop painting portraits and explore other avenues that photographers couldn't capture, which ultimately made paintings more interesting and creative. There was still a market for the talent, but the craft and art had to evolve to stay ahead of the new technology. This will likely be the same for movies, TV, books, etc. There will be a whole lot of A.I. "photographers" out there. Many not do is seriously or with much effort, but some will attempt to make it their own artform and put a lot of effort into it like the best photographers do. Many will be very talented people who simply did not have the luck or connections that others had to get a foot in the business and the A.I. will give a means to have the worthy art created whereas it otherwise would not have been. It will be a huge mixture and the world will figure out ways for the cream to rise to the top. Or perhaps art and entertainment itself will change so drastically, it won't even matter. I think of the holodeck in Star Trek TNG and that's a likely future step where movies/TV become much more interactive/personal and simply watching something seems odd and blase. Also keep in mind that a LOT of film and TV would barely qualify as art and is more often than not products of marketing departments and product placement...just long or expensive commercials. Is the new Super Mario movie more worthy and a "W*****" (if no A.I. was presumably used) compared to a great screenwriter "loser" who decides to use A.I. to bring his writing to life? This isn't black or white. There's a lot of gray area and we don't know yet how the chips will fall or how things will evolve. All this said, I think we should probably ban A.I. I don't think it's going to make our lives better and every facet it touches will be worse off, except for maybe medical advances.

ALPHAZINSOMNIA Apr 3, 2026 -1
I'm baffled by the ending of your comment 🤣 you seem to have a good grasp on how technology shapes our societies yet you refuse to apply it to AI, which is nothing more than another tool we made. It's the same discussion since we invented the wheel. You invent the wheel, people complain that now no one is going to walk anymore. You invent the sword, people complain that no one will be good at hand to hand combat anymore. You invent space travel, people complain that it's too early because we still got problems on Earth. And so on and so forth. AI will become just that. It will be a tool like any other. It is our responsibility to regulate it well, not ban it. Because by banning it you eliminate the benefit that the tool can bring to the society. And even then banning a technology like AI would be devastating in a modern, globalized context. Just because you want to ban it, doesn't mean other countries will too.
-1
TomahawkA5 Apr 3, 2026 +1
I agree with everything you said. How would you regulate it? Just on a personal level, I don't see A.I. taking us to a place that makes us happier or better off in the short or long term. I can see a quasi-modern Amish thing happening where the old fogies of society will want to splinter off and create communities that are robot-free so to speak. My fear is that the technology is too good and will grow exponentially better to the point that human creativity has absolutely no value. Even if you can create something great on your own, it will likely be impossible to find it amongst the glut of A.I. produced content. I understand that other countries will not ban it, but... what if banning it actually proves to be to that nation's advantage...IE... you have one population that's entirely dependent on A.I. for creation and output vs another one where the people feel useful, valued and involved. I see the A.I. country being one where there could be an epidemic of existential crises or just indifferent and unmotivated to do anything because robots/computers obviously do it much better. For instance, I have been getting back into Chess after a long time and that A.I. long ago surpassed anything humans are capable so I feel like, okay, I can play and see how good my meager human brain can get at this game, but in the end, I will never even have a chance at beating the treadmill at my gym. So it's pretty discouraging. To go back to your first paragraph, here's an example. Transferring everything to digital media from tangible content like VHS tapes or DVDs. Digital media is good because it saves space/clutter, creates less waste, SHOULD be less expensive, and it's pretty convenient. But we've lost the tangibility of having that library to display as well. The feeling of ownership. And it was also bad for the very industry that pushed it because people don't want to pay to own digital content because it doesn't feel like true ownership. I think in order to feel useful humanity will almost certainly hybrid itself to become robots/humans. It all seems completely inevitable now whereas it felt more like sci-fi a few years back. Like buying the digital media in our Amazon accounts, it will be the prudent thing to do, it's probably the next step in our evolution, but it brings me to tears thinking about that happening to my children.

That would actually be better, and more honest since you're paying the creator for something that you are taking credit for. From what I understand using generative AI is like taking credit for something that was made with stolen parts created by someone who will never be known.

How could she say something so brave? /s Give it 5 years. Progress will keep marching forward. Listnooks delusion that they can scold AI out of existence will remain just that; a delusion. It's actually kind of funny to look at the history of Listnooks opinion of AI. I remember all the buzz about the 2nd Will Smith spaghetti video and how excited people were about how much better it got in such a short period of time. Then about a year later lots of folks had their "Oh shit" moment when they realized it was going to keep getting better/cheaper and radically reshape the art world. Right now its consuming short form video/influencers but it won't be long before it starts supplanting "real" media too. Personally I welcome it but I also don't work in the arts so it doesn't fill me with existential dread the way it does with many folks on this site.
