Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.
So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

Using AI to make fun of AI is still using AI.
Also, saying it "makes up stuff" gives the illusion that it somehow has any actual intelligence or emotions. It does not. It is not intelligent. It's inaccurate because it's garbage.

This man belongs in a strait jacket in a mental hospital.
He just posted an obscenely fake AI video with this completely delusional nonsense from a garbage account on his Truth Social app. Will ANY journalist have the guts to confront him or elected GOP’s on this lunacy????? He is getting worse.

I think the homogeneity of AI should give artists cause to get much weirder with their art, to acknowledge there is no one singular path towards an objective quality, draw some stick figures, make a webcomic, draw weird dicks, make broken incomplete garbage only you and by extension humanity canmake

A pop-up? In a BROWSER?
Are they truly that desperate because people are not using this garbage enough for them to monetize it, or is it something else?

So, SizeBooru, which was problematic to begin with, has devolved into largely a clearinghouse of slop - but this one is beyond the pale:
Someone's spitting out AI garbage of @ednem.bsky.social's Sam' *and* tagging it under his label. 😠😒🤬

Spotify forgot to turn off my premium account when I quit. So I figured I would just hang on until such time that they discovered it. But frankly the proliferation of ai garbage and Ek’s support of drone murder is making me wanna switch anyway.

as a researcher and proofreader whose job it is to clean up my journalist coworkers' AI-assisted output i can assure you it doesn't make them more efficient, it only transfers work to someone else, because the bots churn out absolute garbage and either we publish garbage or a human has to clean up.

i love ai because to anybody who knows anything about the field ai bros think ai can replace, what ai produces is garbage, but to people who dont know anything, a bunch of random lines and words on a page labelled "floor plan" looks super impressive. like giving ur little bro an unplugged controller

The beginning scene of Candycane Lane is the perfect illustration of AI.
A dude who handcrafts all his Christmas yard ornaments competing against his obnoxious neighbour who uses blow up store bought garbage.

This came across my TL. I like the drawing a lot, but this is the sort of “crude” style some people might not hold in high regard, but *for the record*, this is one-hundred-million times better and more beautiful than the sort of stupid slopped out AI garbage that I, unfortunately, see all the time

Because this is like the 50th game in a series that gets multiple releases every year and nothing lasts forever.
Also it was full of AI garbage and looked stupid as fuck.

"Fewer people are playing Call of Duty this year than they have been before" Why has Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 seemingly sold below expectations? Is it simply not good enough?

This isn’t a floor plan, this is nonsense. But let’s pretend for a moment that upon improving, AI would get better at this and render text properly and actually put beds in the bedrooms and toilets in the bathroom and have doors to the outside, even then, it’s still hot garbage… 2/?

i have always believed that ultimately ai slop would become extremely popular because people's tolerance for low quality garbage is so much higher than many people think
but i truly hate being correct about it

Meaningful demand sucks because it's not "AI", it's increasingly complex search-and-summarize-algorithms that spit out garbage, based on scanning and plagiarizing the fucking Internet, which is filled with garbage.
So glad our governments and universities are leaning into this stupid bubble.

Three years into the generative-AI wave, demand for the technology seems surprisingly flimsy
Investors expect AI use to soar. That’s not happening
Recent surveys point to flatlining business adoption

This is all on purpose. To control people. They have been spreading this garbage about AI being God and ChatGPT being a religion for some time now.

Of fucking course Amazon did it without permission. All AI is theft so of course they refused to go through the proper channels just so Amazon can piss out AI garbage.

“Trump belongs in a straitjacket. He just blasted out an obviously fake AI video tied to a garbage account on his own platform and is treating it as ‘breaking news.’ Will a single journalist — or a single elected Republican — confront him on this unhinged lunacy?”

The Mystery Science Theater 3000 cast would have a field day with AI dubs like this — and they're robots.
This is what techbros think the future of entertainment is? This is the worst garbage I've ever heard.

Welp, a second AI dub on Amazon has apparently been found, and it's a show that already had a perfectly normal (albeit non-union) dub: No Game No Life.

I wanna stress, #Crucial leaving the Ram market is absolutely pathetic for the state of the world. They aren't doing this due to a lack of demand, not even a lack of profit, but because they can make dramatically more off the shitty #AI bubble.
They are burning down the world for this garbage.
