Re:MusicLM: Generating music from text

I wonder if this technology will eventually revolutionize music the same way synthesizers did. Or at least lead to music and effects/filters that are simply not possible with current DAWs and plugins.
Custom generation of samples from text alone seems revolutionary.

Agreed.
I'd guess for ~90% of web users, GDPR popups have lost all meaning. The thought process is not about opting in or out, it's more "how do I close this popup as quickly as possible?".

They are gradually expanding the scope of sites where robots.txt is ignored, perhaps "testing the water".

I'm guessing Archive.is will probably disappear within the next 5 years, taking all data down with it.
Nobody knows who owns or maintains the site, and recently the mysterious owner started taking donations to keep the site running. It's a commercial enterprise.
Slick UI or not, Archive.org's longevity is probably more feasible.

"bothered to index" and "IA can be quite selective" implies that there's a human overseer to the Wayback operation, not true!
