AI and artistry - a thread on Becker's Art World theory. Philosophically speaking, generative art differs from human art a lot. An interesting observation is through Becker's art world theory. He describes artistry as a process that will always involve outside interference.

Fake artists. The scary future of AI? Recently, it was uncovered that Spotify is creating fake artists under made up names that create stock music in bulk amounts to fill curated playlists on the platform. The idea os to not have to pay royalties to real artists.

The buzz about artificial intelligence, and what it might do for – and to – the film industry, doesn’t get any quieter. But in the last year, the possibilities the technology offers have perhaps become clearer – as have some of its limitations

”Tekoälymusiikki yleistyy erityisesti somessa ja taustamusiikissa [..] Vuoteen 2028 mennessä noin 20 % musiikin suoratoistopalveluiden ja peräti 60 % musiikkikirjastojen tulonmuodostuksesta arvioidaan perustuvan tekoälyllä tuotettuun musiikkiin.” 🤮💢 #tekoäly #luovatyö #AI #tekijänoikeudet

And there it is folks. Burkov has some good takes on AI and has a deep understanding of it, so when people I'd expect to be more immune to this sort of thing are bringing it up as an issue I find it fairly alarming. www.forbes.com/sites/chrisw...

Well worth a read. If you care about music and art.

Another thought provoking generative AI thread about politics. I have regularly seen conversation around AI like "Left wing hates AI" or that "Liberal ideology is afraid of AI technology." There seems to be some kind of trend that generative AI is viewed differently by different political views.

Research shows that art created by an artificial intelligence is liked less and perceived more negatively. However, this perception depends on two factors: 1. How the AI was used and on which creation processes and; 2. Whether or not the viewer is aware that the art was created by an AI,
