I'm dreaming of an AI that can determine whether a song was AI-generated or is truly one degree from human hands

I highly doubt that’s even theoretically possible, given the vast range of variety and quality of music created by humans.

Feel like people would have said the same with images 6 months ago tbh. (I mean sure, you could get a fake photograph of a person, but the text control that clip has unlocked is just wild…)

I’m not sure I get your argument. I’m saying that it’s impossible to distinguish between machine written music and human written music.

You could maybe make the argument for distinguishing between a human and a machine playing a piece of music.

But if I write a song that just goes A, D, C, G on a loop (plenty of songs like that), how would you determine that a machine song that goes A, D, G, C is not human written?

My bad, I misunderstood you! I agree with you.

Why? The only thing I care about is whether a song is good

Because its more critical than ever that we have a voice
