93: Higher Infinite Power

AI Regurgitation, DJ Taste, Decentralized Curation

Adam Curry and Moe discuss the limitations of AI in music, arguing that it currently only offers "regurgitation" and "remixes" rather than true art. They emphasize that 85% of people have poor taste and rely on curators. They advocate for a decentralized system where trusted human DJs provide curated discovery.
