MODERATORS
 

Recently I saw a video on youtube talking about the controversies in the vocaloid community about popular songs that used AI in some way to help create the music videos or the music itself

A popular example is the song ''Brainrot'' by Tokyo Manaka. the controversy there was that Teto was dancing on backgrounds that the creator commissioned from an AI artist... of course this generated a bunch of drama (probably on reddit, twitter and youtube but i didn't catch all of it myself)

Another example is ''Liar Macaron'' by Gluttonous P (暴飲暴食P), that popular song of teto saying ''I love you'' in different languages. users found out that the author most likely used AI programs to make the actual instruments for the track... this lead to a huge controversy on bilibili and twitter. people even accused the artist of plagiarism because the instrumental sounds way too similar to a song called ''rabbit / 初音ミク'' by john / TOOBOE

Of course there was also the controversy with the miku art for her newest voice bank where people suspected it was AI, but I don't want to make this post bigger than it already is
