      A lot of music is focus-grouped and has algorithms behind it because major labels want to turn it into a commodity. I’m not a musician so I forget what they are exactly, but there’s beats and music notes common in a lot of songs put there because they sell. Regardless, people will always want to hear live music. Nobody is going to pay hundreds of dollars to watch holograms of dead people.

      But yeah. The camera did more damage to artists than AI ever has or will. If painting survived photography, it will survive AI slop.

      Even if they somehow were, what good would it do? Who would even be around to enjoy the prompted floods of slop? What would distinguish it?
