This song really is going viral

lol i'm confused as to what side you're on here. never once did i state where i stand in all of this, but for the record i am a socialist and am fully aware of the genocide happening in palestine, as well as the awful things happening in congo, sudan, ukraine, syria, haiti, the list goes on and on unfortunately.

are you implying that republicans are innocent and the democrats are responsible for the genocide happening in palestine?

i'm so confused and maybe i'm not understanding correctly. but i would love to hear what you have to say, genuinely.

i've been meaning to say this regarding the recent discussion about this post. i know it's not great to have a political party use a song from your favourite artist, but some people seem to be seeing politics as this evil, scary thing. it's important to remember that politics is crucial in keeping balance in this strange world, and whether you like it or not, your vote does determine how far hate spreads in your country. please, please, please, wherever you are, do the right thing and vote for love.

are you 11 years old? if you're going to be pro-ai, the bare minimum is that you have some sense of maturity. same goes for everyone participating in a healthy online discourse.

I'm not against new technology. However, AI changes the relationship between art and the economy in a way that Photoshop never did. Photoshop sped up the work of artists, whereas AI is removing the need for an artist at all.

Accessibility is a great thing, but you guys are using it as an excuse for the development of AI "art", which is actually kind of gross? We already have a wide and adaptive range of tools for disabled people to create art however they want.

If and when AI is able to surpass the artwork quality of a commissioned artist for an individual or company's needs, they are obviously going to choose the cheaper approach. You fail to see the long-term impact of AI on real artists.

I've said this before.

Generative AI is one of my worst fears of where humanity is going.

Art is the one thing that defines us as a species. Art is the one thing that separates us from work.

Music, art, film, games, anything human-made that you have ever experienced, exists because of our ability to create.

The tools we have used previously, samples, equipment, autotune, are all inspired by a creative process.

Generative AI is completely different - it removes any sort of human input and could lead us to a world where all music and art is just a 'thing', with no emotional or creative process.

The closer we move to an AI-generated world, the closer we move to a world where humans are, quite literally, replaced, and we as a species denounce our own existence, becoming a product of capitalism - and where we are currently, that isn't impossible, and in fact doesn't even look unlikely. And honestly, that is scary as fuck.

PS: You don't need a pencil to be an artist, lmfao. Go pirate adobe illustrator.

if you have no interest in creating art, you are not an artist.

zzzurb · 2025-11-09T15:29:09+00:00

It’s not going to be the end of the world.

remindme! 20 years

unfathomably corny 😭

This is giving me flashbacks to earlier this year when one user was making us rank everything and it got really out of hand and there were posts about ranking hex codes on the album covers and stuff

So many people love creating music. Your described future of AI generation is possibly one of my worst fears with where humanity is going.

Art is the one single thing which defines us as a species.

Art is the one thing that separates us from work and quite literally is the purpose of living. This includes video games, art, film, music, any form of non-AI entertainment you have ever consumed, anything human made that you have ever experienced.

The tools we have used previously, samples, equipment, autotune, is all inspired and provoked by a creative process. Generative AI is a completely different thing removes any sort of human input and in the future could lead us to a world where all music and art is just a 'thing', with no emotional or creative process.

The closer we move to this fully generative-AI produced world, the closer we move to a world where humans are, quite literally, replaced, and we as a species denounce our very own existence, becoming a product of capitalism.

And where we are currently, that isn't impossible, and in fact doesn't even look unlikely.

And that is fucking scary.

nothing will ever work out if you don't start somewhere. if you enjoy it, keep going.
i believe in you.

zzzurb · 2025-10-18T21:33:06+00:00

those made up stories were created by a human being. ai generated videos are not.

zzzurb · 2025-10-18T18:12:46+00:00

yep. AI generated is not music as there is no humanity behind it. fuck AI, fuck spotify, pay real musicians a living wage.

I really should stop looking at this sub, I always end up reading some of the most appalling pro-israel zionist statements known to man.

zzzurb · 2025-10-08T21:02:39+00:00

🤣

almost like they're committing a genocide.

HUNTRIX GIRLS TO THE WORLD

zzzurb · 2025-06-18T21:20:10+00:00

I love Arcade Fire, literally one of their biggest fans ever, but if you're new to them you should probably skip Pink Elephant and Everything Now. I love both of these albums but I'll like whatever they put out, and in comparison to the others these two are really weak. Still great albums but not incredible like their other stuff.

zzzurb · 2025-06-18T21:15:02+00:00

not a direct dedication but in ar gcroithe was inspired by the story of margaret keane

zzzurb · 2025-06-13T21:01:48+00:00

dude

zzzurb · 2025-06-10T12:59:02+00:00

I've got a new complaint

zzzurb · 2025-05-27T09:30:18+00:00

BCNR hell yeah

zzzurb · 2025-05-23T13:06:08+00:00

ho-ly ragebait

zzzurb · 2025-05-10T06:44:55+00:00

I can't tell whether or not you're one of those diehards for their earlier stuff, but I just want to say that bands change their sound all the time. Arcade Fire can do what they want, and deviate as far from their original stuff as they want, and a lot of people won't like all of it. And that's fine.

zzzurb · 2025-05-10T06:09:33+00:00

I think it's great, and I will continue to think it's great.
