maybe they got a machine that calculates how much to resist to optimize for $1 spins.

I think most people like being able to open ChatGPT and ask it a question.
What they don't like is the horror version of clippy having escaped it's sealed crypt, being interwoven into every fabric of the OS, by means of the phylactery MSWord, and consuming all that remains.
Senior Computer Guys don't charge $500/hour and they solve $1million problems
actually they do often charge $500/hr, but often it's measured differently, such as $1000/day or $5000/week, and sometimes instead of fixing $1million problems, they create $1million problems, and sometimes the $1million problems are fake.

Or you just 'suddenly' get a severe respiratory disease and die in your 40's
I wonder if the absence of universal healthcare, most specifically preventative, would likely explain this kind of thing.
Adam Neely just released a decent video about AI music and what it lacks
at about 7:00 he mentions showing your work, which is a term that I love from math classes. Unrelated to music, but including music, I've longed wish that showing your work was taken more seriously in society and debate. The rise of AIs will only make this more important, the absence of it will force us all into ignorance and poverty.
I don't know how to play an instrument, at least not really good or long practiced, and also in terms of music theory, I am completely illiterate and have never so much as tried to understand music theory. Therefor, I am not your average music connoisseur, but instead a principled sequential noise enjoyer.
It appears that in the span of a week, a single person could produce 100 sequential noise artifacts and upload them to spotify. A music artist may only be able to create 1-2 works of music in that time period, and must compete with the 1000 people uploading sequential noise artifacts in that same week, plus the soon-to-be 1 million people/bots uploading 100s of sequential noise artifacts per week before 2025 starts.
I listened to OP's soundcloud samples. I couldn't tell they were inauthentic on first skim (not a full listen). They weren't even pandering to me, but if one of them showed on my Spotify Discover weekly (spotify suggests 20 songs to you per week), it easily would have been the top 5 of that 20.
Spotify's search is shit. I have a hard time doing a search for things like "covers of X, but not in garbage genres A,B,C)" or "show me songs from artists with similar music DNA (idk, but you know, that pandora algo bullshit) to artists D,E,F". Obviously, there's not a filter for "btw don't include fascists in results".
I find music I like by accidentally stumbling onto it unexpectedly. To do so intentionally, requires wading through tons of spam and bullshit, even if you find a good curator.
Strange enough, we've concocted a scenario where there are probably 100 artists I would love, but don't have a way to know they exist, 100,000 artists I would love, but they can't afford to take off work to actually make music, and there exists AI systems that soon will be more likely than spotify to hook me up with music that I like. If the AI system improves, and is cheaper than spotify, then why would I, the sequential noise enjoyer, the average person, bother even trying to find real artists?
Music connoisseurs of the world will find their income evaporating, they'll start to come across like wine tasters, or art auction gallerys, or they'll be running around like dowsing rods accusing random new artists of being AI generated, and when not a grift, it'll be for theoretical reasons that existing sequential noise enjoyers already don't understand as they listen to pre-AI poorly made popular music anyways.
This is truly a cursed, dystopian, anti-human hellscape capitalism has forced onto us.
Farm Folks CEO On Boob Physics: ‘We Don't Want To Attract Nasty People’
they could still be recording your IP, with intent to build a case against you, even if that requires one day in the future that your government randomly decides to bend the knee to the US. I still think that's a long shot though.
Why did no one ever think to write books for kids until just now!
I can imagine standing inside my middle school's actually-rather-huge library with books for kids of all ages and hearing somebody seeing Harry Potter for the first time and saying this lol.
