f*** ai though

every thread isn't thinly veiled gang

but yea fax tho

Imagine crashing out over ai

ai slop artist

People who hate on a song because it has an AI video or cover confuse the s*** out of me

they cuttin corners on slippery slopes.

whos to say it dont get to a point where they're ok using it in the music cus its not overtly noticeable.

if the principle is human creativity then artists holding to that in all facets and the lack thereof all share the same weight to me. whats being sold shouldnt have to skimp on integrity just cus a certain exploitative method is more convenient.

i respect you explaining your pov tho

Anti AI people keep acting surprised when others aren't

I wouldn't want AI used in conjuction with my music because it's a massive distraction and usually sucks, but idg why people are dogging Alc for a video and cover he didn't make

Like what exactly is he supposed to say about this

‘You haven’t said one word about music’

Because the song is some lazy s*** too 🫩 which hurts to say..

whos to say it dont get to a point where they're ok using it in the music cus its not overtly noticeable.

Thats already happening with AI music generators brother

Suno got sued for training their LLMs with copywritten music and Timbo just put out an apology for generating a Suno beat that stole from an underground producer without his knowledge

People turning on alc I never thought I’d see the day guess you really live long enough to become the villain lol

People here turn on anyone that doesnt match their purity testing lets be real. Idk how anyone here even prides themselves to be any different than reddit

Niggas really let this bullshit fly

My biggest issue with somebody like Alc doing this is how much he charges for his own work and how he’s been a part of the normalization of higher price tags for supporting underground/independent artists.

Also he would have a much easier time defending this if it weren’t such a simple concept. He could have easily found somebody to do this lol. I would shoot some bail if it was something like the Elephant Man’s Bones cover lol

Wanting to engage with art made by human beings isn’t a purity test man it’s the literal bare minimum

this s*** is not that serious lol

I saw this coming a million miles away he’s been mid for a min and he uses light skin emojis and he’s a Zionist lmfao

im aware. i just dont know if alchemist is on that. but this situation is making it more clear what he is currently open to using ai on and his caustic defense in doing so

why die on the hill that we’ve always used a.i.? Yes we have our phones but there is clearly detrimental things happening! ALCHEMIST MIGHT BE STUPID!

Not the light skinned emojis

cope ass fans itt crying jus cus a fav getting critiqued

dont pretend like thats all im talking about its a clear pattern. Also the music isnt AI so who cares

Look at the rest of erykah badu’s beautiful all timer album/single cover pictures and look at this one. And the amazing the legendary and timeless videos she’s given us and then look at this one.

The absolute devaluing of that into a whole cares thing is doing nothing but losing recipes! Besides the entire argument of visual artists losing money, I don’t want nothing ass visuals and album covers from legends.

If we are ‘who cares’ing away MUSIC VIDEOS and album covers?!!! wtf direction are we going, these are two of my fav things oat.

first its the album cover, next its da album

Not to use the slippery slope narrative but I promise you any artist willing to use AI to generate a music video is willing to use AI to generate a song lmao
