Some uses of AI can be net positive for society. Making fake music is not one of them.
I've been doing it for a week on Suno, and hard disagree. There are legit use cases, and new possibilities it opens up. Haters gonna hate, but people that find it useful will find it useful.
Or is this just an ad for a commercial product?
You claim that “we're making generations on our site free and unlimited for as long as possible” but I couldn't find any UI where I could do anything for free. The best I could find was a “log in with Google” link. Requiring a Google account means your software is not free, and most definitely not “unlimited”.

I've essentially been running an infinity jukebox for the last week. I save the ones I like and relisten. Simple as that. Edit: It's been interesting watching non-musicians argue about emotion in music. I don't care who you are, the 300th time you perform a song, you're faking it to a large degree. People see musicians as these iconic, deep, geniuses, but most of us are just doing our job. You don't get excited about…
Yeah, the whole emotion thing is bs imo. The idea that a machine can't produce something evocative is a defense mechanism, in the same way people still claim that we'll never make sentient AI because humans are somehow magical and special. Humans can find emotion and associations in anything, it's what our brains do. I could totally generate some AI art that tugs at the heart strings if they don't know it's AI, or "i…
I'm interested to hear more about your statement of "Our goal is to enable more of you, not replace you." Speaking as a musician who plays real instruments (as opposed to electronic production): how does this help me? And how does this enable more of me? I am asking with an open mind, with no cynicism intended.
Its a good muse, but I wouldn't trust what it makes out of the gate

When Suno came out I spent literally hours/days playing around with it to generate music, and came out with some that's really close to good, and good enough I've gone back to listen to a few. I'd love the tooling to take a premise and be able to tweak it to my liking without spending 1000 hours learning specific software and without thousands of hours learning to play an instrument or learning to sing.
I just don’t get this. Part of the joy of creating things is the work I put in. The easier something is to make, the less meaning it has to me. I feel like just asking a machine to make a bunch of songs is kind of meaningless.
if the person is spending time tweaking the prompt, which in this system includes BPM, musical style, writing lyrics, and they get a song they like out of it, how is that meaningless? how is that any different from strapping loops together in GarageBand instead of learning to play the guitar or drums?
