People who flood music platforms with AI music making from $70,000 to $140,000 in a few months is why us musicians and producers are pissed about AI music. I don't dislike you folk out there who have a genuine and true love of music and are using AI to do it, environmental factors aside
An AI music flooder already made thousands of dollars they withdrew from Distrokid (see thread I linked below). Now Distrokid has blocked their account from withdrawing funds after they tried to withdraw $70,000 in only a couple of months. a couple more months have passed and their total should be up to $140,000 in revenue for them if their account wasn't blocked. Of course they probably used all manner of tricks like bots (probably massive bot farms gaming the system). This is totally professional grade scamming.
But this is what us musicians and music producers using DAWs are angry about. This what we mean when we say people are stealing money that could have gone to us instead. Some of you need to realize how bad AI music flooding has gotten, and just how huge the money these people are are making.
NOTHING AGAINST YOU PERSONALLY: I have nothing against you actual music lovers out there who found AI was the only way you were able to follow your passion. Sure, I'm against the environmental aspect of AI server farms, but I'm sure environmentally safe in the box AI on your own computer is probably just around the corner, which can negate that.
MY POINT: There needs to be full clarity about and labeling of AI generated music and partially AI generated music. The people who think its funny to not label AI music, do so at your own chagrin. Why? Because even if you are not making much money but you hide that your music is made with AI, people like me are going to just assume you are hiding that your music is AI because you are are one of the huge music platform AI flooders making tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars by elbowing us musicians and music producers out of the money pool. Just like the the AI music flooder lawyering up to try and get $140,000 of money that doesn't belong to him from Distrokid below:
