Link to original Rick Beato video, which was a follow on from his Velvet Sundown one.
It's also the most generic music with vacuous lyrics, as you'd pretty much expect, so about on par with most manufactured pop music.

I am totally with you on the musical side of things: AI generated content is about on par with your average pop song from the music industry machine.
The big question is whether the general public prefers better music, or if they are actually perfectly happy with slop. I think that's the real battle of the decade: yes, AI generated stuff is terrible, but what if terrible is all that people want?
I think the general public don't care, and wouldn't know good music if it fell on them, as evidenced by decades of 'top ten' music. I've now got 'Agadoo' stuck in my head.
Thank you.
You can write your own lyrics too. The more input you rely on AI for the more generic it is going to sound, if you put in more input then it will probably be at least less generic. My PC can output music faster than I can listen to it and I only have an RTX 2070, no internet required to generate an endless stream of music that is probably better than listening to a radio channel that has constant interruptions.
How generic is too much? If someone just wants background music then they probably don't really care. Give them a couple of style dropdown options and press play.
