AI music is not a technological advancement in music. AI music is just a side effect of advancements in generative AI. This can be extended to other areas where generative AI gains traction. AI generated texts are not literary advancements in literature, AI generated art are not advancements in art etc.

As for the lowest common denominator part, it is true for all types of generative AI. AI will almost always spit out the lowest common denominator of the medium it tries to generate.

I honestly detest the junior employee analogy, AI is not and will never be like working with actual humans.
> That’s all great, but there are websites that still don’t have dark modes. It doesn’t make any sense in 2026 that Gmail doesn’t have a dark mode. If the activity you’re doing most at night is reading email, you might consider an alternative email client.

This reads funny on a website that does not respect your device's dark mode. Guess I'll look for an alternative blog.

Seems like the steering wheel comes in three colours: silver, rose gold, and space gray...

This is the closest we've ever got to the Apple Car.

Might as well turn them into a winner.

Great project! I always love seeing new game engines, and it’s even better that it’s in Dart.
