"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I found an awesome 80s style cover of one of the Kpop Demon Hunters songs on YouTube. I still like it — but the channel has dozens of videos including 5-6 of any given song, they make more than one a day, and when people ask them to go on Spotify, they say they won’t — which is interesting because Spotify just banned AI generated music. So I’m 99% sure they’re an AI band. My point is, I can’t help liking the song, so I feel like we’re screwed because that could happen to anyone. (FWIW I’ve downloaded the song so I can play it offline. So they don’t make money from my plays.)

So my question is. How do we know? And what can we do?

For sure? I don't think it's likely there'll be a way. You can only get best guesses.

In my case it's mostly intuitive, a sort of uncanny valley but for listening that clues me in that something's off, and then I start looking for stuff actively. If the "band" has many different genres or varied styles, if I go to older videos and the singing is different or the voice is altogether a completely different one, if there's no social media presence, if there's no interaction with the comments, if the account's relatively new, if there's no sense of improvement in a natural human way (as in they clearly got better at playing), etc.

But nothing will ever be enough for me to be 100% sure unless it's extremely evident.
