A ChatGPT for Music Is Here. Inside Suno, the Startup Changing Everything

Suno AI wants everyone to be able to produce their own pro-level songs with artificial intelligence — but what does that mean for artists?

Listening to new #Phish Spectrum 1997-12-03 release on LP. The mix sounds meaty, beaty, big and bouncy. For curiosity, went back & compared to recent shows. The difference in the mixes is pretty drastic. IMO, they're not giving enough effort to the quality of the regular LP live show mixes. For the $ they're making/charging, they could/should do much better. Take one critical element for example: Compare the kick drum from Mexico to Spectrum 97. Put a good audio engineer in charge for LP!
"We're at the end of a vast, multi-faceted con of internet users, where ultra-rich technologists tricked their customers into building their companies for free. And while the trade once seemed fair, it's become apparent that these executives see users not as willing participants in some sort of fair exchange, but as veins of data to be exploitatively mined as many times as possible, given nothing in return other than access to a platform that may or may not work properly."
The digital revolution has failed

The benefits of the internet are eroding. The AI boom is only accelerating their demise.

Today's addition to the acoustic repertoire, "Country Home" by Neil Young. Nothing but 3 chords and the truth (G C D). Neil's guitar melody is a little tricky, but not critical. Easy vocal range. Give it a try.
@bourgwick Do you have any idea why the toots from @DeadStudies get cut off after ~50 characters? I tried a few different apps and it's the same.
