I get about 8 frames per second on this site. I don't understand how websites are built so badly these days.

In a word? Abstraction. In two words? Abstraction and apathy.

There is good abstractions and bad abstractions.

This is brilliant, more info at places like this: https://www.nme.com/news/music/billie-eilish-launches-infini... I was brought up on The NME and the rock press and love left-field bands and I've always felt Billie (and her brother) fit comfortably into that tradition despite (or partly because of) their terrific pop sheen. Great talent at a very young age; this next decade will be hers.

“...which begins with the singer’s original video for the song and, with the help of AI, has synced up thousands of covers...”

Isn’t this just a timestamp sync for certain search parameters? What has artificial intelligence got to do with this?

I've been waiting for 15 minutes for this to load, and now it's stuck at 100%. Firefox 83 64-bit, Ubuntu 20.04, Ublock Origin. 3D Acceleration on.

Have you clicked "click to play"? 2/3 down, center.

It just says LOADING...

I tried with chrome and same thing.

It could be a buzzword but I think it'd be fair to assume that different covers of the same song are slightly out of sync at different points. So the algorithm (AI or not) would look for signature beats in the original and match them with beats in a close range in the other songs.

As others have commented, mobile browsers appear to work well. Or disable plugins.

Testing websites in the the web browser ecosystem is a tedious job.
