@glowmo, I see part of what you're saying. But I think that Katy Perry is one of the most brilliant lyricists and her songs are literally and physically masterfully crafted for pop music. I think the AIVA computer could potentially come up with the magic framework that makes a pop song, but wouldn't be able to produce it to the level her producers can. I mean Max Martin vs a computer... anyone would hire Max Martin. Regardless of price.

Yes, the digital feeling loses it all. That's why I supplement it with analogue modeling with my UAD interface and plugins.

No Man's Sky was brilliant huh? When I played it I just was mindblown that it could be all procedurally generated... like... how is the whole world not freaking out about this still?
