Music snobs have been doing this for decades, pretending to like the shittiest pink Floyd b-side because the normies don't get it and acting like Abba's entire catalogue isn't solid bangers because disco isn't cool, until it was again then they'd always loved it.

It'll be just like it always is, Pete Seagar with an axe trying to stop Bob Dylan playing an electric guitar. I remember when people hated d&b and said it wasn't real music and all that shit now they're all telling bullshit stories about how they were og junglist massive.

People will use ai to make really cool things and a loud portion of the population will act superior by pretending it's bad, time will pass and when the next thing comes along all those people will point at the ai music and say 'your new music will never be as good as real music like that' but the people listening to atonal arithmic echolocation beats to study to or whatever the next trend is won't pay them any attention.

Yeah, I've noticed at a young age most people base their tastes in art around what their peers will accept.

As soon as their peers say AI is ok, they will follow suit.
