Culture is fluid. Music is about exploring the boundaries of what sounds good, often because of feelings. Related to the society in which the music is "consumed".
AI music is a commodity and generally uninteresting, like artists who only imitate styles.
But just like annoying over-commercialized music that only tries to scratch existing itches and match expectations, it can still work to a degree.
Intent is not a lofty concept, it's at the heart of what art is.
It's like, sure you can want things from music that are to your specific taste, but it's like coming into a post about, idk, a folk band and complaining that it's not metal. You're allowed to like your thing, but clearly most music is allowed not to be metal, why is this music specifically bad for not being metal?
And in this case the point I'm making is stronger, in that AI audio actually unlocks a lot of ability to listen things that are ‘interesting and creative’ but not widely available because of consumer preference, so it's actually more like showing up to a folk metal fusion band and saying the problem with this band is that it isn't metal.
Weird. That's another phrase I don't see in the post.
>You're allowed to like your thing
Massively generous of you, thanks.
Somehow it's assumed that artists make music for the audience, but many make it for themselves, because they enjoy the process.
Contrary to other comments in this thread, typing prompts on a keyboard is not the same as picking up a guitar and playing it.
