It looks like AI music is following the same path as AI text:
1) Appears to have passed the Turing Test, people are only 50/50 in identifying older Suno vs. human songs (but 60/40 when two songs are the same genre)
2) Same fast development, new models are getting better quickly.

It takes much less time to create a song in Suno v5 than to listen to a song. Given the results that people can't tell the difference (and may prefer AI music, that isn't tested in the paper), it suggests a big change coming to music consumption (and, soon, video?)

Fair points here, I should have differentiated more in the post between Suno (with lyrics, singers, any genre) and the kinds of AI music that came before - the papers did, my tweet did not. x.com/Grady_Booch/st…
