Hi folks, another shitty story from the slop-pocalypse ((AI-)slopalypse?).
Article from billboard, archive
NB: I think this story is bullshit. I imagine some parts are true, but there’s no concrete source given for the “$3 million” figure. So it’s my speculation that this story is hype cooked up by Suno (the AI company enabling this all) and thrown at publishers for an easy headline. Also the human behind this has their name spelled differently in the two articles, so clearly some quality journalism is happening.

The Forbes “contributor” hive strikes again.
To quote the most pedantic nerds on Earth (complimentary),
Most content on Forbes.com is written by contributors or “Senior Contributors” with minimal editorial oversight, and is generally unreliable. Editors show consensus for treating Forbes.com contributor articles as self-published sources, unless the article was written by a subject-matter expert. Forbes.com contributor articles should never be used for third-party claims about living persons.
I fuckin knew it. I did not know where to look to see the contributor attribution, so thanks for pointing it out.
