This was made with AI. The video art definitely, the lyrics/music/singing almost certainly, judging by highplainsdem Tuesday #1

how fast he's adding new videos. Plus the channel's profile says he uses AI.

Please delete this OP. This forum is for real, human-created music.

John Cundle is a real musician. That channel has a link to his real band's website. He should be aware that there are a lot of musicians among the many artists opposed to the use of generative AI tools that were trained on stolen intellectual property and damage the livelihoods of artists.

I hate seeing people who do have actual talent of their own use AI to churn out as many as - let's see - 5 videos a day in recent days, different styles of music and voices. Which means he's almost guaranteed to have AI writing the lyrics for him as well as "creating" the music and voices.

Very disappointing.

If he'd do a satirical song he and/or his band wrote and performed, as the Marsh Family Singers do, it would be interesting. Of course they don't churn out 5 videos a day with different voices, because their artistry is human.

This is AI slop, and the AI tools used and the corporations behind them are artists' enemies.

satire rather than using AI. They deserve attention and support, and the AI slop flooding the internet makes it harder for human artists who are actually, honestly creating that satire instead of having AI do it for them.
