*The AI-lephant
in the room
I’ll cut to the chase: it’s slop.
FAIK Beats is made with generative AI tools. They pose an existential threat to dozens of music-related professions. They were trained on the work of human artists without their consent. And we all know about the gallons of water and gigawatts of power they burn through every second of every day.
I think about making AI music the way I think about eating meat: conflicted as fuck.
It’s hard to describe the deep, lasting joy I get from creating these songs. Platforms like Suno give my lyrics and concepts a life of their own. I’ve been cranking them out like Tin Pan Alley’s favorite son. Unexpected bonus: I’ve never danced this much in my life.
So if you aren’t deathly allergic to generated slop, lend me your ears and let’s FAIK the funk.
