Soon there will be an anti AI politician. Heโll get swept into power after going massively viral on social media promising to ban AI. Plot twist - much of content he won on was all AI generated.
Trying Seedance 2 via Higgsfield, it keeps rejecting my reference characters, even those that are clearly stylized and not real people. And it's unpredictable, it accepted the same reference one time and rejected it another. Unfortunately this makes it unusable.
Spotifyโs AI music boom is now redirecting millions of dollars away from human musicians and towards AI.
The article says 34% of daily uploads are now AI-generated, or about 50,000 tracks per day, which suggests the royalty dilution problem could grow long before listeners can reliably tell what is synthetic.
The basic problem is simple supply: streaming platforms split a royalty pool by share of total plays, so every stream captured by cheap AI-generated tracks slightly shrinks the payout going to songs made by people.
The reported estimate from Sloptracker says more than $2.5M has already been diverted by just 50 AI artists.
The deeper issue is that music platforms reward attention at scale, and AI can produce songs in huge batches with almost no recording costs, no session players, and no studio time.
A human artist is limited by time, skill, and studio cost, while an AI system can generate huge volumes of passable music fast enough to flood recommendation systems, playlists, and search results.

I had no idea Grok Imagine was so dominant in this space. How come it's not talked about more in the AI video creator communities - seems most focus on Kling 3, Veo 3, and Seedance 2.
