lemon caravans & RV's n Australia - The original and the best. 
Be a slap in the face to those customers and suppliers if this turns out to be true.

And this is the AOR statement from director. https://australianoffroad.com.au/?fbclid=IwY2xjawUYHsFwZG9mBWV4dG4DYWVtAjEwAGJyaWQRMXhESDBIMGxra3JTQVczTUNzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEeosvUQmVKHaYjF9dfnVd0gtrjAiZCyDgpGD0mEL9WlOEV9DR20FwnFt5-T64_aem_DLI3iQPzaODF_dZTX3TMWg

Troopy, I agree, you don't have have any talent to produce music. Using AI.
Look what is doing across all work platforms, jobs.
I've had my business credit card hacked three times this year.
What APITA. :(
I went to a branch(CBA) and asked how.
I was told the scammers are using AI.
1, credit is only 4x 4 numbers
2, expiry is. 12 months/5 years(span. I think)
3, 999 number CVC.
AI, can go through all that in a matter of seconds.
Business is using AI, to try and bet AI.
Rise of the Machine.

Back to music, I guess the only thing is to go and see live bands, :)

On another site, there was a bloke saying how AI produced music was just as valid as music produced by human artists. I explained that you can have absolutely no talent, and still produce a song, with listenable music and lyrics, with about 20 seconds of input from your keyboard, so it really devalues true artists. I then got onto a website that allows a free song, and typed in

"make me a country & western song about a man named (inserted his profile name) who's wife left him, his dog died and his horse died"

Less than 20 seconds of KB input on a free website and it produced this: Toto's song

So imagine what you could do if you used a paid website with options on style, instruments, vocals, chorus etc etc, and spent half an hour on it.

My point being that AI generated music is talentless grist for the mill, but can be fun to do.

And the link is safe BTW. It's on a file hosting website Imagenetz.de

This is another 10 seconds work about a man named Bob who thinks AI music is souless. The Soul of an Artist
