Side idea: wouldn't it be great if somebody made a "vocal remover" for streams that have them?

The fact that this is still a difficult problem makes me think we haven’t progressed that far yet with ML and AI.

I don't believe it's a difficult problem - no need for ML/AI since removing vocals was / has been done decades ago already, see karaoke - it's just that nobody's bothered to build it. Plus, adapting a song like that has legal implications; iirc you can't just release a karaoke version of a song for example.
