We backed up Spotify (metadata and music files). It’s distributed in bulk torrents (~300TB). It’s the world’s first “preservation archive” for music which is fully open (meaning it can easily be mirrored by anyone with enough disk space), with 86 million music files, representing around 99.6% of listens.
do you have any numbers on the AI share? I doubt it’s more than a 2%, so I assume you are just virtue signalling on a completely unrelated topic here :-)
AI slop can be made and distributed in ginourmous numbers. I wouldn’t be suprised if at least 3/4 of uploads from the past 2 years are AI.
See, 75% of output of 2 years vs 100 years of music production. Also popularity was factored in.
A bot could put 100 AI generated tracks on Spotify per hour. 50 bots doing the same is 120,000 tracks per day.
can you run me the numbers for 200 bots?
120,000 x 4 = 480,000
This is easy to do with a calculator.
