Is the belief that these tracks are being generated and placed by Spotify themselves, or is it possible that third parties are uploading generated music? Are other streaming services liable to encounter the same issue?

I thought the headline was mocking Shopify, not Spotify. It shows how little creativity we have in tech company naming. I wonder which suffix is more popular, -ify, -ly, or -r.

Names are hard. I'd say it says more about how little creativity we have in tech company business models

Does anyone have any good tools for migrating off of spotify? And where to go? I’d like Apple but their apps are horrendous and they completely bastardized the classic Music app pre streaming.

Soulseek is the best option out there. Bandcamp is also good

I have several songs that I actually like which are AI songs.. maybe they just need to label them explicitly as AI? Or maybe they need a way to filter it out.

There are some honestly funny and interesting AI generated songs out there.

We're actually entering the timeline where you have to migrate to some Neal Stephenson Anathem-esque (digital) monastery where people cultivate knowledge. He really was onto this trend, in the newer Dodge books as well. Maybe this is one of the few pro-social use cases for crypto, some sort of alternative net where people are verifiably real and content is authentic. I genuinely cannot understand how platforms are no…

It just so happens that OpenAI’s sama is founder of World(coin), which in exchange for your biometric data can authenticate you online as a biological human.
