I've had some limited access to it this week, it is right on the edge of frightening
If you stick to genres and prompt well, it makes completely passable music most of the time,
and every 4th or 5th click it produces something actually decent and listenable.
It is genuinely shocking, the vocals in particular can sound completely human in every respect.

look but what ultimately is the point? let's say it does render absolutely perfect music. What for? What for? Why have we done any of it? These simulacra of cultural products are no more than seawhitened dry shells on the beach, surely? The animating spark, the squidge and meat and mucus is not there...who are they, who will they, be singing to? Music is not merely a series of sounds but a quickened pulse, a thumping heart, a swell of body fluid that falls as either tear or spunk, sometimes surely both at once, contd. 97 pages, is this the kind of thing you mean (yes that's great /Ed.)

Possibly not vlad. I think the noise of the approaching enormous profits makes it difficult to hear anything else.

That would be the bizarre end point if things continue as they are. Right now though, it works.

for corporations, i mean. microsoft, meta and others have already replaced thousands of jobs with ai, and they're just getting warmed up.
And the people who are really driving this are almost entirely insulated from the negative consequences, in the short term anyway .
