I’d say this is an accurate description of what daylight saving is.

I didn’t notice until you pointed it out. Thank you kindly.

Tnx :)

Cheers to the women of the fediverse, and the world, on your day. Glad to have you around :)

Feel free :) (I’m not the origin BTW)

Stanky Phony Stark?

Yep, looks like Phony Stark is at it again.

Those vocals are pretty good for being computer generated. It’s no replacement for greats like Bowie, Simone, Jagger, Winehouse, Yorke, etc, etc, but it’s not supposed to be. Sometimes it’ll do the trick, sometimes it’ll be a necessity, it’ll work for some backing vocals, demos, sketches, songwriting experimentation, guide vocals, and so on. I hope we’ll see awesome AI tools being used to make awesome music.

I definitely have that fear myself, but I hope human resilience hangs in there. Besides, I don’t think I’d care if the masses listen to bland shit by 17 songwriters or bland shit by AI ;)

There has been synths that has been used to trigger vocal samples, among other things, for like 40(?) years, and this almost sounds like an evolution to that?

There are a lot of technological innovations in music (vax roll recording, tape recording, DAW recording, tube amps, transistor amps, amp modellers, Mellotron, analog synths, modular synths, digital synths, soft-synths, etc, etc, etc), and I think there’s surely more to come, and awesome new music to be made possible from the technological advantages.

I agree that the technology is not the problem, but how it’s used. If, let’s say, giant corporations feed all of human art into their closed, proprietary models only to churn out endless amounts of disposable entertainment, it would be detrimental to the creation of original art and I’d look upon that as a bad thing. But I guess we as a society has decided that we want to empower our corporate overlords at the expense of ourselves, to go far off topic of the original thread :/

Absolutely. If one just “does as told” without understanding without understanding there is no way of knowing if one is lost or not.

I’ve had similar experiences in school myself, and they truly are detrimental to both learning and the joy of learning.

I’m glad you are doing better, and thanks for sharing your story :)

I haven’t seen anyone mention rubberducking or documentation or understanding code as use cases for AI before, but those are truly useful and meaningful advantages. Thanks for bringing that to my attention :)

I disagree. They need to understand math, but not being able to calculate math problems in their head.

Do the government already suggest that people can get drunk and beat their families instead of getting started in an apprenticeship or job, then?
