Nice article and i agree we need to show our spirit and the love we put in the work. I try to make more videos of my work along the way and share it but it is a lot of work. Would love to see more self made promotional material from colleagues.

Forget economics for a bit and let’s refocus on one of the core issues of genAI music (especially suno before v6).. it is all based on theft. Stop rationalising the idea of ‘ it is here to stay’ and acknowledge the theft. Only then can you talk about economics (which will be minor> too expensive).

On average, the Dutch think that 20% of the people here is Muslim (it's 5%). They overestimate our income tax rate by 28%. They think the number of homicides is on the rise (it's falling). And that agriculture takes 19% of our land area (it's 60%). And they have strong opinions on all of the above.

Same here. Already people are claiming that is ‘a leftwing bubble’ or echochamber. While i think politeness and making informed statements, should be normal, i do not see only leftwing opinions here, whereas X is def the opposite of both. I think it needs a real crisis to make people understand it.

Care to share which funder/company is behind this? It mostly looks like a genai webslop for techbro’s to invest in a pyramid scheme (with bitcoins and red and blue pill images). Hard to take these ‘bold plans’ seriously. But if they are actually doing this, then this is a big problem obviously.

Extrovert here, people do speak up to shut me up. It does happen :) I only speak up when i’m positively excited and engaged on topics where no one seems to be but should be (silent majority breaking i call it) but i try to temper that enthusiasm because sometimes (introvert) people need more time.

Intimidatie is een te licht begrip in deze context: potentie tot afpersing, inbreuk op privacy, (bedrijfs)spionage, etc etc. Na ‘smartphones’ ‘drones’ ‘deurbellen’ gaan ze nu nog kleiner en onopvallender ons leven beinvloeden, maar waarom we het precies nodig hebben weet niemand behalve Meta.

Out recording on a nice sunny day after a week of rain and wind. Everyone is excited and cheerful on the streets so crowd recordings are very dynamic full of laughter. Bumped into a soup festival on the way with a perfect mix of Dutch and Internatiional languages.

Is doomscrolling bad for you? A meta-analysis of 42 studies (N=46,912) finds that consuming short-form videos is linked to increases in inattention & impulsivity; reductions in working-memory span & self-regulation; elevations in anxiety, depression & stress; and a surge in addiction symptoms.
