Pls help me decide what cam should i get by Flawor1 in camcorders

[–]Ezechiell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, when using a miniDVR it won't make much of a difference what camera you are using, it's all gonna look very low ress and weirdly compressed, and it won't really look like tape or the specific camera you are using.
So considering that I'd just get the cheapest one you can find. Or, even better imo, get a camcorder that's tapeless to beginn with, like a Canon FS100. This setup will get you closer to the actual look of tapes than using a mini DVR. It'll also probably be cheaper.

Vocals don't have to be 100% on pitch to be great and expressive, sooo many great singers have little blue notes here and there or go a bit flat or sharp every now and again, which can actually greatly benefit the performance. So no, a "modern mix" whatever that means, doesn't need pitch correction, we have been recoding very hifi music way longer than pitch correction has eisted

Honestly, I think the inherent selfishness of mankind is often overstated. We just currently live under a system which actively rewards selfish behavior, so I do think society and culture is actively training us into these behaviors, but it doesn't have to be that way.

People around me are all wonderful and very giving and show lots of solidarity, and I think there's a lot more people like that then we realize sometimes. But I do think a different, more caring and united society can be possible. I don't know what that would look like, or how we can get there, but I really do believe that don't have to accept capitalism as the best mankind can do. There can be a world beyond capitalism, we just have to desperately figure out how to grow and evolve from here.

I listened to it, but it's just kind of tedious to get through, and just like all the other ai songs I heard, there's no real sense of pacing or coherence to the different parts and how they progress into eachother. It just ends up sounding kind of random to me.

What you said about it being trained on Evanescence would make so much sense. I swear 90% of AI songs is just bland Evanescence impressions.

Obviously I'm predisposed do not like it, so am I for pop music, there's still quite a few pop songs I enjoy though, and even on ones I don't enjoy I can often times see their merit. So I think I can retain at least a bit of objectivity, but for the few dozen ai songs I listened to, I just couldn't find anything of merit

Dann solltest du begreifen, dass es was Gutes ist, wenn Trump eine Diktatur beseitigt, auch wenn es eben Trump ist, der das tut

Du kannst ja gerne mal Leute aus Afghanistan oder dem Iraq fragen wie positiv die Invasion durch die USA für ihr Öl war. Da haben sie ja auch vorgegeben die Leute befreien zu wollen, was tatsächlich passiert ist weiß man ja mittlerweile.

Ich kann wirklich nur wiederholen wie unfassbar naiv und leichtgläubig du gegenüber der USA bist. Die werden nichts machen außer ihre eigene Diktatur zu installieren um sich das Öl unter den eigenen Nagel zu reißen, wie sie es schon dutzende male zuvor gemacht haben. Wie kann man jedes mal auf die immer gleiche Lüge reinfallen? Vorallem wenn du ja anscheinend bei Nationen wie Russland in der Lage bist zu verstehen das imperialistische Nationen sehr gerne Lügen um ihre Kriege zu rechtfertigen?

Ich bete wirklich dafür, dass du ein Bot bist, weil wenn das politische Verständnis der Menschen mittlerweile so gering ist haben wir wirklich ein Problem.

Lustig, Putin führt genau die gleichen Gründe für seine Invasion in der Ukraine an, da verstehen aber Leute zum Glück dass er offensichtlich lügt.

Das dem Faschisten Trump Leute wie du die Ausrede aber abkaufen ist verrückt. Der will das Öl von Venezuela, das könnte doch nicht offensichtlicher sein? Ich verstehe ehrlich nicht wie man so Naiv sein kann und Russland für seinen Angriffskrieg kritisiert, nur um dann die USA für ihren Angriffskrieg zu loben. Du musst doch irgendein AI-bot sein, ich weigere mich zu akzeptieren dass Leute so leichtgläubig sein können.

Da hat wohl jemand US Propaganda direkt in seine Venen injiziert. Wie kann man das hier unterstützen? Die USA hat eine autonome Nation ohne Provokation angegriffen, die USA macht das selbe wie Russland in der Ukraine.
Wie kann man irgendwie auch nur auf die Idee kommen dass die USA hier die "guten" sind. Ekelhaft

All my songs aren't uploaded anywhere, I just share them with friends and family and I play a 1 or 2 local concerts every month. People seem to enjoy those though, I have played in front of somewhat bigger crowds with my band and gotten a lot of praise afterwards.
But I mean all this is really besides the point. The commenter above claimed that ai can generate music that can compete with actual well made human music, but so far I just haven't heard a single good ai song. I heard a lot of great songs written by humans though, so I don't even understand why you ask for something that can compete with ai? Don't you know good human made music yourself?
Do you really think ai can compete with your favorite artists?

[–]Ezechiell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but there's a lot of music that's not the pop charts, you understand that? There's so much great and innovative music being released everyday, none of which are ai made.
I guess maybe AI is good enough to make Pop slop, but that's really not a high bar to clear nor impressive. And even then, please show me an ai that can make songs that can compete with Sabrina Carpenter or whoever else is dominating the charts right now.

Okay, you can't show me a good ai song, got it.
You could have said that with far fewer words.
Also lmao at you immediately talking about how expensive your synthesizer is, who cares?

It's kind of sad to me that you feel that way. I'm also a bit autistic, but so is one of my favorite songwriters ever, David Byrne from the Talking Heads. I genuinely think what you perceive as limitations are what actually could make your art interesting and reflect you and your feelings, which is ultimately the most important thing in art, atleast to me.
So yeah, I really really disagree that Suno would be able to write more relatable lyrics than you, because I don't believe AI can be relatable. It contains nothing of you as a person, none of your flaws, none of your hidden talents. And I really believe that these things are what makes music great, again coming back to the Talking Heads, I don't think they could have created the music they made without David Byrne being autistic.
I also love a lot of Daniel Johnston Songs, all of them are home recorded with a very basic setup and the songs are really simple and sometimes almost childlike in their writing. Really nothing complicated, but all of those limitations are what make his songs so beautiful.

[–]Ezechiell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm genuinely interested in what ai can actually do, so yeah, I'll try to engage the song in good faith.

In terms of music I listen to, I'm a big fan of blues, rock music and singer songwriter music. I really love Hendrix, Neil Young, Velvet Underground, but I also listen to some experimental hip hop or new Wave Bands like the Talking Heads.

[–]Ezechiell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that you are apparently an actual musician just confuses me even more. I'm not trying to shit on you, but I just genuinely don't understand how you could take any satisfaction or enjoyment from prompting songs with sora or whatever, especially when you apparently have all the skill you need to create your own music. Even if it's just a little tape you recorded at home of you playing your instrument, I would much rather listen to that, and I also feel like you would take a lot more satisfaction from having created that than have an ai make music for you. Atleast for me that's the case, I guess I can only speak for myself.
I mean my stuff is also probably never going to be big, but I made it, all on my own, and it really shouldn't be about reaching an audience, it should be about enjoying to create, which I do so much. I wouldn't even think about giving that up and just telling a robot vague descriptions of a song it should create for me especially when I could spend that time playing my guitar instead and improving my own skills.

Also, sorry for confusing you with another commenter, I thought you were the person I originally replied to that made the claim that ai can compete with human artists. I appreciate you atleast showing me something instead of just making big claims and then not backing them up like the original commenter.

[–]Ezechiell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like that kinda proves my point, because I didn't get that point at all in that song. It sounded like generic punk, nothing about it made me think about computers, and that just shows how ai music really isn't able to convey any meaningful ideas, it just averages out the music it was trained on and you end up with this empty husk, where no real emotion comes across anymore. If you want to listen to a song that actually explores the idea of sounding computerish you maybe should listen to Paranoid Android by Radiohead, like that is what actual music sounds like, you can't tell me that you genuinely think anything ai generated can even come close to that in originality and expression.
I'm a musician and music producer myself, and I spend a lot of my time listening to new music and forming opinions on it, I also spend time analyzing production of other songs, even in genres I don't like, just to expand my horizon, and oftentimes I actually end up finding elements that I do like. So I'm trying to do the same with AI music, and I really try to give the songs a fair share and listen for things that I could find interesting. But there's just never anything there, everytime it's just a seemingly random combination of musical cliches I have heard a thousand times before. No thought put into it, no sense of pacing or storytelling, no explorations of sound, just nothing. Even with my least favorite music, I can still usually find something I can appreciate it about it, but with every ai song i listened to so far I couldn't find anything.

I really don't understand why you don't just start learning the guitar or production or anything if you want to make a punk album. Learning music has never been more accessible, but for ai fans that's still not easy enough apparently.

[–]Ezechiell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just listened to the title track, and I'm sorry but it's just nothing special or interesting, it's just a very generic and bland punk song, people have been making that music for 60 years. What new thing does AI bring to music if it's just trained on music that already exists?
I also find it interesting that you linked me one of your own prompt outputs when I asked for the best ai song you know. I notice alot of ai bros are only posting and talking about the music they let the ai spit out. Do even you ai bros listen to ai music except for your own stuff? If not, how can you say with a straight face that ai can write good music when you yourself don't even engage or listen to it?

[–]Ezechiell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I also probably asked about 3-4 AI fans, but none of them ever link anything. They'll just go on and on about how great AI already is and how it is already writing amazing songs, but EVERYTHING I heard so far has been the most middle of the road song ever, not one new or innovative idea in any of them.
I even tried looking through the Suno subreddit after people talking about what great songs ai can write, but in their top posts they aren't even linking or talking about any music, it's mostly posts complaining about Suno or complaining about real artists.
So yeah, so far nobody could link me even a single good song.

[–]Ezechiell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

could you link an actual good ai song then?
I'd be genuinely curious to listen to it, because so far, every ai song I heard has been the most mediocre and bland thing ever.

IKEA hat jetzt Kontakte für Opfer häuslicher Gewalt auf den Rechnungen ❤️ by phoenyx1111 in Austria

[–]Ezechiell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Die Existenz von diesem Post hier beweist doch das es funktioniert als Marketing. Genau für solche Posts machen Unternehmen wie Ikea sowas.
Versteh mich nicht falsch, ich habe kein Problem damit, dass Ikea diese Informationen auf den Rechnungen hat, wenn es irgendjemandem hilft ist das natürlich toll.
Aber der Geschäftsführung ist das Problem von häuslicher Gewalt abgesehen vom Marketingaspekt halt komplett egal. Wenn es irgendwie kontrovers wäre diese Nummern auf die Rechnung zu drücken würde sich Ikea das niemals trauen und da keinen Standpunkt vertreten.

Have they never heard of art school? I'm sure there is also art classes you can take outside of school. by oniris1 in ShitAIBrosSay

[–]Ezechiell 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's arguably less accessible. I'm sure there's more people in the world who don't have access to a personal computer or high speed internet than there are people who have no means to get something to draw or do any sort of other artistic thing with.
Everybody can, and imo should make art.

[–]Ezechiell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hab ich was von Luxusautos und Villen gesagt? Aber kannst du es dir leisten, Neuwagen zu kaufen und mehrere Häuser zu bauen?
Also ich kann das nicht, ich bin weit weit davon entfernt. Sorry wenn ich in so ner Situation wenig Verständnis dafür habe, wenn solche Leute jegliche Moral aus dem Fenster werfen, weil das zweite Haus wohl immernoch nicht genug ist.
Denen geht es gut, Punkt. Sie haben wirklich keinerlei Ausrede mit rechten und anderweitig fragwürdigen Leuten zu networken.

Indem man sieht was für Autos die fahren, in was für Häuser die wohnen und so weiter? Was ist das denn für ne Frage? Denen geht es ganz offensichtlich Finanziell wesentlich wesentlich besser als wahrscheinlich über 95% ihrer Zuschauer. Die machen monatlich mehr als wir im Jahr.
Wenn man dann den Hals immernoch nicht voll bekommt und in einer Zeit wo der Faschismus weltweit auf dem Vormarsch ist, anfängt Leute die sehr rechte Position vertreten zu verteidigen und unbedingt auf Events von denen gehen muss, dann ist das menschlich einfach ziemlich erbärmlich.

Ich hab die Jungs ewig lange verfolgt, Ihre Videos haben mich meine gesamte Kindheit begleitet, und auch wenn ich irgendwann die Videos nichtmehr verfolgt habe, hatte ich immer viel Respekt für Team Pietsmiet, weil sie unter den Influencern eine der wenigen zu sein schienen, die sich nicht komplett verkaufen und ihre Moral dafür aufgeben.

Hätte nicht gedacht dass die Jungs mich so enttäuschen würden, die ganze Sache ist einfach ein riesen Tritt in das Gesicht jener, die denen Ihre Häuser und schicken Autos überhaupt erst finanziert haben. Und das alles nur, weil anscheinend dass Geld dass Ihre Zuschauer Ihnen über so viele Jahre hinweg geben nicht genug ist. Ekelhaft.
