imagine having so sick and warped a mind that you come up with an idea like this. oh what if i open a gas station but we water down all the gas
The last time this happened, the deal was that the music was generated by bots, and also listened to by bots. Basically it was a scheme to get money out of Spotify.
But also, folks will use AI to generate anything these days, like these books that suggested that a good way to identify whether mushrooms are poisonous is to taste them.

You got a source for this, or is it true because it’s on the Internet?

I don’t have any evidence, but anecdotally I totally believe this. My wife’s ‘AI guided playlist’ is completely full of popular song covers from people I’ve never in my life heard of.

Well, my equally valid anecdote, my AI DJ plays artists I play a lot and know and like. It’s almost never somebody new, and if it is I usually like them and find out they have an actual history.
As somebody who’s been into the AI space for a while now, I know AI music does exist, but at this point anything past 30 seconds sounds God awful. You’d know if it was AI, trust me.

Stupid question, doesn’t the original artist get royalties for covers too? If anything a cover would cost more, if not only the same, not less.
