Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

If you like music enough to have any idea what song is playing? You’re probably too fancy for Suno just yet. Go to Bandcamp. Buy a record. Go out and see a band.

Newgrounds' Audio Portal is also pretty solid for finding new and excellent music - AI slop is completely banned under site guidelines, there's active (human) moderators and a dedicated cleanup thread to keep it out, and the scouting system (plus some human curation) provides some quality control, letting good work more easily rise to the top.

An impressive demo’s one thing. But when the slop machine is sold as a product, there are no unfair prompts. There is no holding it wrong.

That's a nod to Steve Jobs' response to the iPhone 4's antenna problems, isn't it?
