AI Bots Pick The Hits of Tomorrow

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."

In America, listeners used to pick hits. In Soviet Russia, hitters pick on you.

Not at all - It's a fresh story created by comparing old stories and synthesizing a story which has been carefully analyzed and found to be similar to some of the greatest slashdot stories of the past.
