Well I did it.
Instead of sleeping, I spent the night writing an open letter to Mikey Shulman, the CEO of #suno.

I am dog-tired, and boosts are greatly appreciated. ❤️

Professional writers had a similar reaction when people started blogging 30 years ago.
The people gathered around the notebook in your office weren’t doing what you do, but they were expressing themselves, and thus were creating music.
You don’t like this for some reason which you didn’t explain very clearly, imho.
Btw I fully expect the same derision you showed for the people without your 48 years of experience. Let’s see if you can overcome the need to tear other people down. 😁
Btw I have 48+ years experience myself in creating software, and that is being revolutionized by AI too, and maybe now finally the people will get what they want, or perhaps learn there’s more to creation than making the computer appear to sing. 😀
@davew I do not think that this is a fitting comparison. If you want to make a comparison to people writing blogs then it would be bed-room production and self releasing music on the internet.
Typing a prompt into a GenAI is more like commissioning a work on Fiverr. And yes, asking someone to create a specific piece of art for you can be a way to express yourself. Though, this is not the same thing as making it.
And here’s how you’re wrong, I don’t create with chatgpt with “the press of a button.”
Suggestion: stop arguing and complaining and try listening and using,

If every time I posted a toot here 10 kittens were strangled somewhere, I would most definitely stop posting. I don’t care how great or useful a tool may be if the corresponding social and environmental and epistemological costs are disproportionately high. You can choose to ignore these costs for your personal convenience, but that doesn’t make it an ethical choice.
But in case you hadn’t noticed, the world is literally burning because of this mindset.
