Thanks for the comment and I'll give a brief run-down as to the nature of this experiment of mine. The first point is that the fundamental point of music, from the perspective of Nietzsche, is always to elevate the listener. Songs like this are better at that than the vast majority of music out there, regardless of whether performed by humans or not. It can't reach the heights of great lyrics + a great human performance, but that's not exceptionally common in music regardless. Second, the method of music composition in the modern era is simply different from physical performances of the past, in a way that previous philosophies of music couldn't really comprehend and therefore couldn't adequately offer a perspective on. The music that I've personally composed, for example, is all digital based using sound clips and this is quite common among current musicians. It gives you the opportunity to have a orchestra, essentially overcoming the physical limitations. Even albums that are primarily physical performances typically have a hybrid form where they use elements of digital music. Third, the use of Generative AI music is usually similar to sorting out musical clips in digital music. There's trial and error in what works, you have to go through a bunch of different pieces and put them together, etc. The only song that I've ever had come out great with a single generation is Snakes and Doves. The others have to be spliced together or edited. This song, for example, had I think 60 generations and five splices to put it together. Most of the splices went fine, but there's a brief error before the line "Scion of Poland no longer cares" where the . It took me about four hours in total to get the composition put together. The fourth point is that everyone has to decide how much struggle (the process in bringing an artistic idea into reality) affects their perspective on the value of an artistic piece. In this case the struggle involves writing the lyrics, refining them, then essentially contracting the performance to a generative AI and saying yes or no to the different compositions. Whether that's enough struggle or if it negatively affects the piece to the point it isn't appreciable is up to the listener. There isn't really an objective cut-off point for a yes or no on the issue. A few last points. I just posted an image in the "Post" section of my channel that I think might challenge your viewpoint on the value of AI art. Specifically it was the image that convinced me it could have value. Lastly, I've got a few upcoming videos about the philosophy art that I've already recorded but need to be edited and put together. They were supposed to be out by now (to tide the channel over until I get my next animations finished), but unfortunately the Tenet situation derailed that and was a bit too interesting for me to let slide.
@@Aman-ln2oh What exactly do you find pretentious/cliche about the lyrics? Those two ideas are usually in conflict with one another, pretentious being another word for elitism vs. cliche describing mass media. The series of songs that I'm working on are intended to be from the perspective of different people, not all of whose ideas/perceptions are real. In this case the idea is that a lot of Nietzsche's past experiences and ideas are mingling together as he's sitting in front of a window, effectively paralyzed, looking at the rising sun. The chorus is based on a passage in Thus Spoke Zarathustra where Zarathustra talks about sitting in a cave talking to the sun and waiting for lightning to strike him.

Niezsche's song is the dire strangeness that feeds the mind with the birth of tragedies that acclaim the life of scientists.
Made me cry a lot. Well done brother.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Lyrics are beautiful and depict his tragedy very well but the song is quite contradictionary because Nietzsche would have absolutely despised AI Art

Good answer but the lyrics is pretentious and cliche @@kotharianlightning
