These things make me sad. Not that the results are anywhere close to good enough to replace a human artist yet, but eventually it'll probably be at a level that's good enough for most people, and that'll be the day when music will be truly disposable. I imagine an endless stream of music equivalent to the average Netflix-produced movie. Perfect for people who want music to play all the time without actively listening to any of it.

One of the aspects of Orwell's 1984 that makes it a dystopia is that popular music for the proles is composed by machines...

I would say we reached that day quite some time ago, due to a variety of factors, none of which included AI/ML/correlation analysis.

Music is disposable ... just today. Just take a listen at the most songs in charts ... senseless crap.
At the end always better like this AI crap at least to my ear.
Don't worry because AI would not replace a big part of music if ever.
Maybe AI would be used for generating catchy hook lines but that's all. The end selection of what's catchy and what's boring will always do a human.

The music in the top of the charts is definitely not appealing to me but it's not all senseless crap. The lyrics and emotions can be closer to a Marvel movie but there's a pretty high level of production in the bigger artists. It does nothing at all for me personally but when I hear something like a Dua Lipa song you realize there's real effort and skill going into it.

Now we just need something similar to https://github.com/nogasm with a different kind of "implant" that monitors my dopamine levels and optimizes based on that.
