    final fantasy III (us III, the magitek mech kefka one) has tunes I STILL use as background music on audio production: magitek factory, the intro and shadow’s theme specifically

    the idea this god damned genuis would let an algorithm write music he’s bother to even listen to is madness

      no one “needs” AI, imo. I think I know what you mean, I just don’t think there is any use case that rises to the level of “need”.

        I think it could be useful in edge cases and the user needs to be skilled at whatever they’re using it for.

        Reality is it is predominantly used by rich assholes to cut corners and get around hiring and paying workers.

          idk, i have a hard time imagining a scenario where AI output is preferable to the alternatives. If one “needs” an AI to do something, they should just hire a human. They will get better results than they get from the word-association machine. Once AI companies stop subsidizing the cost of AI to attract users, the human will probably be the cheaper option, too.
