Totally agree with you on the copyright aspect: that was not an area I touched upon in the post, so thank you very much for pointing it out, since other readers may certainly want …

>> Man pushes slot machine lever 5,000x and edits together best slot machine sounds to make song. Proceeds to beat chest about being a music maker. While you may have meant that as…

>> is this really music you're making? Well I do believe it is "music" but whether it's any "good" I guess idk! I do enjoy the process though and believe there would be others who …

Have been making music using ML/AI tools for about as long as I've been on HN. Had a recent comment section on HN here [1] and after that thought it might be worthwhile to write ou…

Love the passionate replies! I think I especially agree with this comment: >> think that soon, some very accomplished musicians will learn to leverage tools like Suno, but they are…

Tools like Suno are fundamentally enabling. I'm about 40 years old and never "had the music" - not for lack of trying (music lessons at a young age)... but could never carry a tune…

Written poetry all my life, of varying badness. Have never had the ear or the talent for music though and – unfortunately – always felt I wanted to write “songs” not “poems.” Since…

for folks leaving decidedly negative comments, I would point to the link: https://github.com/multimodal-art-projection/YuE My understanding is that this is a (somewhat) open-source…

Shouldn't the "sonic boom" here provide good data as to the existence of dark matter (akin to the Bullet cluster)? Anyone on hn with good background care to comment? Don't see anyt…

gpt 3.5 has had function calling capability since July 2023 (for user). [1] Yes, they have never mentioned that the 3.5 model already does this in the back-end for certain features…

Is gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct function calling a chess-playing model instead of generating through the base LLM? This is not "cheating" in my opinion... in general better for LLMs to k…

Yes! Difference is the current-gen EREVs are in a different league of performance with the advancement in electric powertrain and software. Think change between a Model 3 and a Che…

I would note that "hybrids" in China (where plug-in-hybrids have gone to 16% of market share, up 700bps y/y) is a fundamentally different architecture than hybrids in the west. In …

That does sound very high. Not sure where you are, but guessing you are in the US at least. As a comp, SunRun puts out detailed cost estimates for their residential systems each qu…

Yes, the cost of GENERATING electricity will undoubtedly be cheaper at the industrial scale level than on your rooftop. But that generated electricity is likely to be a region very…

Find your statement fascinating as well, but could also provide another haha-but-serious explanation that I personally like... which is that there are universes with an infinite pe…

At this point, utility scale solar projects have reached scale in the supply chain, and cost estimates tend to be quite accurate once you break ground and start construction. Yes i…
