I cannot replicate this.... I created a brand new account on matrix.org, started an encrypted direct chat with my personal account on my self hosted server (which has been running for around 2 years..) and everything worked fine. Messages were successfully being decrypted on both ends...

> In other words, matrix.org has isolated itself, forcing everyone else (those who set up their own servers or registered on small company servers, for example) to create accounts on matrix.org to avoid losing contact with the majority of people on the network.

This seems like a bit of an exaggeration don't you think?

> authorities have simply approached them and asked to create a walled garden to prevent people from spreading across uncontrolled servers.

That is quite an allegation, do you have any further evidence for this?

I think the super weird part is that it's not great? I understand this is most likely very impressive technologically but musically it is disjointed, inconsistent and fake sounding. Most of the "music" examples have weird phrasing and confusing harmonic rhythm.

Kudos to stability.ai for achieving this as I am sure it took a lot of effort and this is a huge leap forward in terms of generation of audio by generative AI.

However as a musician (BMus and MMus at 2 different conservatoires) I think it's important to say that the job risk being experienced by creative writers will not be extending to musicians... yet.
