      There’s other art than music. And genres within music. I wouldn’t call myself a “music guy” but I do support other forms of art.

        And weird random computer generated music.

        If youre arguing for diversity then you shouldn’t mind AI music.

        If youre arguing for art to be restricted to human creators you should indiscriminately support it through government programs, local initiatives, and places of learning. Otherwise no one is incentivtized to do it.

          If you’re arguing for diversity then you shouldn’t mind AI music.

          well we come full circle back to the main topic and hit the paradox of tolerance. Someone trying to claim “Spotify, Apple Music, and Streaming in general is over” is not someone trying to embrace diversity and carve out a new road to potentially explore. They are stating an intent to conquer and extinguish.

          I don’t have a problem with the concept of AI music, but I do with the kinds of people it seems to attract. So yeah, I can’t really support someone who simply sees art as an algorithm to “solve” and dismisses human made music as “obsolete”.

          you should indiscriminately support it through government programs, local initiatives, and places of learning.

          I do. But it’s not like I fund all art equally. I play a lot more video games than I listen t soundtracks, and I watch a lot more animation than I do plays. Art is diverse and you pick and choose what to consume or make for yourself.

          That’s all I was saying when I said “I wouldn’t call myself a music guy”
