In reply to the discussion: Irish version... [View all]highplainsdem
(60,836 posts)12. You may like it, but I'd bet Springsteen would hate this AI slop version ripping off his work. So disrespectful
to follow his heartfelt song with a crap version made by a machine, as the ethics-free AI user who has that YouTube channel of AI slop did.
From the description of that video:
The visual character shown in this cover was created using Artificial Intelligence tools to reflect the artistic vision of the song.
This cover is created using human music production with Artificial Intelligence-assisted vocals and tools to shape the artistic vision of the channel.
This cover is created using human music production with Artificial Intelligence-assisted vocals and tools to shape the artistic vision of the channel.
"Human music production" could mean almost anything, even changing a single note.
This is AI slop, both the artwork and the music. That AI user has no real respect for all the human artists including Springsteen whose work was ripped off to train the AI, and now he's ripping them off even more.
This is an insult to Springsteen and all real artists.
The older videos on Ethan Gontar's channel aren't AI. But a few months ago that unethical YouTuber started using AI to do "his" version of hits by Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, Ed Sheeran and others.
And now he's used AI to generate a disgusting machine travesty of that Springsteen protest song.

You and others. It was intended to fool people, or it would have been labeled AI very openly. I'm sorry

Since Bruce has some Irish ancestry even more appropriate. Sounds good. TY!

There's no one Irish on this AI slop generated by a YouTuber in Israel ripping off other famous musicians as well.

Disappointing, fraudulent, and probably stealing clicks, attention and money from real artists.

Thank you for looking at the slop there carefully enough to notice that AI atrocity of an atrocious RW song.
