My own posts are mainly extreme music: Death Metal, Prog Metal, Tech Death, Avant Garde Black Metal, sometimes Fusion or other stuff

I also boost things I find interesting often related to tech, digital rights, leftwing politics, etc.. Often in German, but the German posts I wrap into a quote with spoiler for ease of scrolling past.

Also recently widowed and single parent of 2 small kids

but then at least in the the verse it's 4 bars each time and there is an A and a B variation which only differ in very few notes and it also goes A B A B, so there is some structure! And I found that a main building block there is a small phrase (or maybe even word?) going 1 0 1 0 on the low string for eight -> dotted eight -> sixteenth -> quarter note, so taking 2.5 quarter notes in total and this also shows up in slight variations in riff 1

also the first riff has 4x 2bars with a pattern that is just different in suble and not so subtle ways and I can't see any sense in it whatsoever :thisisfine:

for me what separates art from AI is intent or deliberation. Amazing artists tend to be extremely deliberate about what they are doing. Nothing is left to chance, or if chance is involved, that is also again a deliberate choice (e.g. in alleatoric composition).
Slop doesn't carry intent - stuff is just there because LLM put it there. Art is full of deliberate decisions in every detail. In slop you better squint a bit to not notice the details.
Same argument can be made for code. AI code is always "coding by coincidence". There is code and it kinda works. In good code, every piece is intentional and needed.
