       | whatever media they are producing (videos / video games)?

         | with pure meme lyrics - something that's not been possible
         | without a lot of effort until now.

       | Why of all things do we choose Art to emulate with AI? Is it
       | because we have such poor understanding of what makes good Art

       | who know Art are insulted by this product while the average AI
       | company pats themselves on the back thinking they must be doing
       | something right to piss off the Art snobs. What they're missing
       | is that using AI this way is just pointing out how little the
       | general population understands about Art.

       | As somebody who recently did a deep dive into music licensing for
       | a podcast, the simplicity of the license terms of ai companies is
       | sometimes appealing, by comparison. Not always
       | 
       | Music licenses are obscenely complex, and understanding almost
       | anyone's license is a research project. Epic won't even clarify
       | if you email them, they just tell you you'd better retain a
       | lawyer. Every company redefines terms like broadcast,
       | performance, media, audience, platform, etc. it's insane
       | 
       | I won't be using ai music. I'm just saying, I wish you could
       | license human music in a way where you didn't have to live in
       | fear of breaching the terms by accident
