AI music still easily beats all the top chart slop in creativity and like 95% of actual musicians in production quality. Honestly, it’s probably the least shitty thing that came out from the AI hype-bubble.
So I’m pretty ignorant of the top of the chart I’d be willing to be a guinea pig. Do you want to send me like 3 chart toppers and an AI song and I’ll see which one is most creative?
Methodology: Picked 11 random tracks from random youtube regional weekly charts (10-20mil views each), and 11 random AI tracks from Suno monthly trending, also in random regions. I don’t trust you being ignorant of charts to be good enough factor to shield you from their influence, hence the random regions part. I’ve tried to make it a little more fair by skipping tracks in both sets that contain elements I think would’ve been dead giveaways, like diegetic switches, heavy metal hooks, etc. Also, all tracks are intentionally downsampled to 120kbps to try and hide some of the artifacts inherent to AI music. After all, I don’t think I did that good of a job picking the tracks, tbh, certainly not in favour of AI, but let the result decide.

I’ll do you one better. I’m actually curious what’d the result be so I’ve thrown together a little survey.

Fantastic, I’ll try to listen today
Everybody is entitled to an opinion. And that certainly is one.
