now i just need a 300TB hard drive..
Correction: you need a 200TB hardrive. By now, at least 100TB is AI generated shit music that you don't need.
Edit: these numbers are an (un)educated guess based on my vibes.
Where does that number come from?
Out of my ass. Its just commentary on the fact that spotify has AI generated music and that there is a growing amount of it. Maybe I should not have used such steong language.
Everyone knows the best jokes are moderate and impeccably logical.
Good luck filtering it out. Or are they tagged as AI?
Nobody knows that. We haven’t downloaded the archive.
I cannot be that much yet, seriously? Not flaming you on this, maybe you are right but it sounds unrealistic. Spotify has decades of music stored, AI has been round with ability to generate tracks just for a few years. Something like 10% of it sounds more reasonable to me.
Not even that. There’s decades of indie music from around the world on Spotify. I would be surprised if more than a few percent of the 200 million or so songs they scrapped metadata for are AI.
While some will be AI, they did filter by songs with at least some play. The millions of AI songs that get uploaded likely get very little play.
But then there’s some AI artists that are getting millions of plays a month….
i believe they sorted by popularity so that the AI generated bullshits are mostly not included?
So that's already a sanitized version to download?
Link please
there isn't
Not great timing unfortunately...

the best time to buy anything tech was 12 months ago. the second best time is right now, before prices get even worse, which they 100% will
Actually, the best time was around 4 months ago. I paid around $100 for my 2x16GB 6000 M/T CL30 DDR5 kit. The same kit right know costs over $500.
yall keep saying that but prices were down not consistently going up
i was just saying you can pay $X now, or $X+whoknowshowmuch later.
it is true that the price of tech has historically gone down as technology advances, however, right now AI demands all the supply, which providers are only too happy to provide for. supply down = demand up = price up
at the end of the day it makes absolute zero difference to me whether you buy anything or not. do you
