Toch nog één voordeel van AI-muziek: omdat Suno (cum suis) ook generieke popslop kan maken, moet je als artiest nu echt origineel blijven/worden. Goed voorbeeld:

"At Anchorage, therefore, the Trump administration seemed to be trying to do more (reach a final settlement) with less (giving up the stick of economic pressure on Russia)." Great article!
"It won’t be a just deal as long as any part of Ukraine is under Russian occupation. But it could be a sustainable deal."

Getting to any deal between Ukraine & Russia will require the United States & Europe to stand by Ukrainians & stare down Russia's demands.

The two places Trump wants - Greenland and Canada - share a land border. They fought the so-called Whisky War over it for almost half a century, and it was basically adorable.
![In 1984, Canadian soldiers visited the island and planted a Canadian flag, also leaving a bottle of Canadian whisky.[10] The Danish Minister of Greenland Affairs came to the island himself later the same year with the Danish flag, a bottle of snaps, and a letter stating "Welcome to the Danish Island" (Velkommen til den danske ø).[11][12][13] The two countries proceeded to take turns planting their flags on the island and exchanging alcoholic beverages.[14] In 2005 a Canadian man and an unknown source on the Danish side also posted advertisements on Google to "promote their claims".[14][15][16]
The minor border dispute was often considered humorous between the two nations, with diplomats displaying good humour. Despite the serious official nature of the matter, the manner in which the conflict was prosecuted was light-hearted, demonstrated by the length of time taken to settle the dispute, if nothing else. The two nations are on friendly terms, and are also founding members of NATO.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:abgvvtq35ocdxplvcpi7yjce/bafkreig7t5xgy5njclpmuf6pb5qf2mnnfyotwc2totd2mnxj2ulm3vqate@jpeg)
