      I remember hearing how Country music specifically was always at risk of AI soundalikes due to how formulaic it is. I guess that it’s true. Yikes. Feel bad for all the Country fans out there.

      For the past few weeks I’ve had to listen to country for the first time in my life because I’ve been driving around with various work partners and that’s what they listen to.. each night before bed I pray that we get in a car accident next day.

      Imagine making music so repetitive, derivative and uncreative that it dulls your fans to the point that you put yourself out of a job. That being said, this says a hell of alot more about who consumes country music rather than who creates it. Rednecks really are NPCs.

      Small town, cold domestic beer, cut off jean shorts, everyone who’s different than me sucks. Did they really need a cutting-edge AI program?

      Artists had to see this coming. After autotune it was a just a matter of time until someone said: „Why do we need a human singer again?“

      Nineteen-Eighty-Four was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual. Orwell’s prediction of the Versificator, a machine at the Ministry Of Truth that creates media and music for the ‚proles‘ without human input seems to have nailed what AI is becoming:

      “There was a whole chain of separate departments dealing with proletarian literature, music, drama, and entertainment generally. Here were produced rubbishy newspapers containing almost nothing except sport, crime, and astrology, sensational five-cent novelettes, films oozing with sex, and sentimental songs which were composed entirely by mechanical means on a special kind of kaleidoscope known as a versificator.”

      ― **George Orwell, 1984**

      the sad but perhaps not unexpected truth is that the modern top songs in all main genres are algorithmically very predictable.

      this has previously been the job of the producers who are the secret sauce behind the big hits.

      > The fact that this is happening with country shows that even country music is susceptible to being faked without any sincerity.

      Jokes on them, country music hasn’t been sincere since at least 9/11.

    9. Really speaks more to the quality of radio country these days than anything else.

      The record company, the streaming company, and the AI company are all owned by the same sheiks. Oh yeah, the media company reporting this too.

      You’re gonna eat whatever slop they feed you and praise it like they tell you to.

      Looked up the song lyrics – AI telling us haters gonna hate:

      ‘Ain’t changing my tone, ain’t changing my song
      I was born this way, been loud too long
      You can hate my style you can roll your eyes
      But I ain’t slowing down I was born to rise’

      A year ago my coworker and I were talking about the first and last musical genres to be emulated by AI. We both agreed on country being the first.

    14. The headline is sensationalizing. It’s about the [„Billboard Country Digital Song Sales“](https://www.billboard.com/charts/country-digital-song-sales/), which are so specific that they’re easy to manipulate. It’s only counting songs bought in the U.S. on platforms like iTunes.

      The song doesn’t even appear in [the actual country charts](https://www.billboard.com/charts/country-songs/) (and is therefore lower than #50 in those), where streams, vinyl sales and radio airplay get counted.

    15. I mean thats more just a damning analysis of the current state of country music more then a feat of AI. It just goes to show that modern country music all sounds the same, and an AI proved people cant tell the difference.

    16. Let’s be honest, it’s not like country music wasn’t already basically AI-generated with how lazy and pandering it is.
