Fragile egos. Someone in one of these AI threads mentioned the three great blows to human narcissism. I loved that. Modern AI is the fourth one. This ones so bad otherwise reasonable people are regressing to naked magical supernaturalism.

Exactly. The point of a painting is not to reproduce reality. The camera is good at reproducing reality (better than 99% of painters!), but the camera doesn't make art.

In the same way, Suno can produce music-like audio very well. It doesn't produce music. It may be possible for somebody wielding Suno to produce music, but the average use of it certainly isn't it. It's certainly worse at producing music than almost any musician.

It can churn out muzak like no tomorrow, though, same as ChatGPT can render you barely-tolerable images of any art style you ask for.

How many "musicians" can play through even a basic song like Transilvanian Hunger, a dirt simple 3-4 chord song? There comes a point when people let their anti AI psychosis get to the point when they start stating obviously and absurdly insane stuff, like how a music generation app that makes decent quality music is "not music" or worse than atrocious crap most learners and amateur musicians vomit out.
