Asked ChatGPT first to convert the license to poem: https://suno.com/song/bdad5f22-a1f0-42fb-a3d8-572d289687ea "Publish, distribute, let your dreams take flight, Sub-license, sell, under stars or sunlight."

It would be fun to do GPLv2/v3 rap battle.

Well done! I ran it through with “Europop” as the type and I’m pretty happy with the results. This is a fun tool to play with. https://suno.com/song/216c7bf7-77b1-4703-8b16-e9173c08c50b

I’ve found it fun to take a coworker’s comment (like in slack, if it’s long enough) then hand-modify it into a song with “[Verse X]” and “[Chorus]” headers on blocks. Sometimes I’ll also run it through an LLM to do like what you did. Anyway it’s been a lot of fun and everyone’s gotten a kick out of it.

Elevator music ... Hmm, perhaps there is a business model there: an elevator that writes music about the people inside the elevator, and adapts as the situation changes.

Lots of folks don't like the song, ok. But that's no real criticism. See, lots of folks do like songs done like this. Consider the thought experiment: If it was your buddy's sister doing this rendition, would the first thing to blurt out of your keyboard be, the comments in this section? Or would we have something considered and relevant to say? It's so easy to denigrate an AI, it's not a 'real person' so say any cri…

I would be more likely to disregard minor negatives in favour of any positive words I could find. When AI is on the same level I personally will be more mindful of how my words affect its feelings, sure, until that time AI music will get honest reviews from me. So far I've seen a whole…

If the internet were capable of this we'd have a lot less problems. It undoubtedly applies to your buddy's sister but is not even applied to all humans.

Art will realign to put more value on live performances. Don't worry, people who push AI art don't understand that art is a form of communication between humans. They might learn when the bubble pops and they are left with a trillion shiny "art" objects that are worth nothing, because nobody wants to look at them.

Not totally true. Yes, there's value in live performances and human connection but most of the songs we listen don't stimulate that. Hell, often we don't even know what the musician looks like, who they are, how they sound live, etc. They're just items in our Spotify queue that are only there to give us a dopamine hit with their sequence of well-composed sounds. There's a craving for a deeper connection but that's us…

I mean theres a lot of like crap production music for film and Tv out there. I imagine like cheap reality tv shows will start using AI music. Maybe anime, which is always looking for ways to make its arduous production methods easier and cheaper because the industry is so volatile and not guarunteed to be profitable. But I think to make properly decent money as an artist you need to tour. This has been the model ever since streaming took hold. So yeah, its not going to be that profitable to be a faceless AI pumping out stuff into your spotify stream. I think the market will be in music for TV.

These songs don't have any hooks. Melodies don't get repeated. They all just meander along. I think as they get better at making these great middle of the road songs, edgy music will reemerge. Whatever AI will be good at, will immediately devalue, in the realm of arts. Just how photography gave way to non-realistic art and how drum machines made sloppy drums (or ridiculous apex twins) hip. Then, the artifacts we see…

> These songs don't have any hooks. Melodies don't get repeated. They all just meander along. I've been playing around with it for a few days now. While I agree that it seems impossible to create songs with a more "sophisticated structure" (for lack of a better word off the top of my head), you still can get better results by fine-tuning, as is always the case. If you just request "rock music" or "jazz", you get very…

It does a very convincing Finnish death metal.

I go full dystopian. Elevator music that delivers your compliance trainings in the corporate world...

Fair point that.
