Nobody wants to tell me why they only listen their own Suno slop

There’s this alarming trend in the Suno subreddit. People aren’t just prompting AI songs; they’re sitting around listening almost exclusively to their own slop.

On Trails is a wandering tale that blends hiking, science, and history

Hiking is one of life’s great joys. Turning off the screens and stepping out into nature for an extended period of time, perhaps even several days, is rejuvenating.

Record Club is trying to be Letterboxd for music nerds

There isn’t really a solid equivalent to Goodreads or Letterboxd for music lovers, but Record Club is aiming to change that.

Record Club is clean and […]

Hanging out in my favorite virtual coffee shop in Tokyo

Finding a cafe that fits you can be a revelatory experience. For me at least, there are few places outside of my house that I can truly feel comfortable in. I’m lucky enough to have two options in walking distance: a coffee shop that’s bright, airy, and full of art, and another that doubles as […]

Why would you disrespect your favorite artist with an AI remix?

AI covers and remixes of songs are already a blight on the internet. Spotify, YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram are awash in flat reggae versions of “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” dinky country renditions of The Weeknd, and monotonous Motown reimaginings of AC/DC. Now, a new tool from Spotify will make them even easier to generate and […]

The Boys limped through its last season, but made up for it with the finale

It’s hard existing in a world seemingly designed for the undeservingly powerful and painfully boring few. They have been gifted what many of us only dream of: the ability to effectively do whatever they like, free from everyday concerns like money, housing, and health. But instead of living in quiet serenity, many choose to use […]
