AI Bots Pick The Hits of Tomorrow

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the so-why-is-there-never-anything-good-on-the-radio dept.

Wolverine Inspector writes "The Music Industry uses a product called HSS (Hit Song Science) made by Spain's Polyphonic HMI. According to The Guardian "while no one's talking about it, it seems that the whole record industry is already using AI to choose hits. From unsigned acts dreaming in their garage, to multinationals such as Sony and Universal, everyone is clandestinely using a new and controversial technology to gain an edge on their competitors." Even though it costs about $5,200 US/$6,500, many artists are starting to buy it to help them write succesfull songs."

    I heard that the movie studios have a robot called AWESOM-O that creates winning movie ideas.

    Its already generated several hundred ideas using Adam Sandler alone.

    Nah she wears that tie and "acts out" that makes her badass. I want to grow up just like her [except I'm male and 5 years older than she is........sad...]

    It's funny, during the holidays I watched a bit too much MTV and there was a "meet a rockstar" where some teenage chick met Avril. The best part though is Avril was off in space during most of the taping. Throughout the show it looked like she couldn't give a rats ass about the "fan" she was about to meet.

    If she's that rude and inconsiderate now that she's a star and well todo what is she gonna be like in 30 years when she's a has-been? I can see a string of Avril arrests coming up in the future ;-)
