    hard to say exactly what data the various large language models have been trained on, but likely archive.org snapshots of ap.net.

    the more i sit around and casually think of ai, the more galvanized my sentiment is that it’s a tool like a drum machine or camera. good for general stuff, but you still need skill / effort / human ingenuity to make anything that isn’t creatively bankrupt / practically worthless.

    i doubt tatebot is out there wreaking havoc, but you never know i guess.

  3. WP had a page a while back that showed all the websites and content that went into training the early models or whatever, and you could search through it; chorus, this forum, and AP were all in the top like 100k or something like that. It’s why from day one you could ask it about me and it would give weird answers.

    it may have been this:

    thank u, next Supporter

    Look forward to never listening to the “TV” non-“vault” tracks again outside of Fearless, lol. Very glad self-titled is already done, since that’s the only other one I cared about; will that one maybe now wait for its 20th anniversary next year?

    I guess I didn’t realize how many of her fans are streaming dominant (I realize I am the outlier, but I mostly don’t use streaming platforms), but Rep and TS went 1-2 on iTunes yesterday as her younger fans finally bought albums nearly 10 and 20 years old.

    She’s one of a handful who probably actually gets a profit from streaming.

    Okay this is wild. I am seeing tons of Threads/Tiktoks where people are reacting to hearing Rep and TS for the first time (outside of radio singles). I know she got millions of new fans over the last couple years, but it’s honestly wild to see how many didn’t just listen to the non-TV versions once they were in the fandom. Like, just illegally download them at this point. It’s oddly performative.

    So did those people go to the tour and not even know a whole era??

    I GUESS?? But also explains why so many think Midnights and TTPD are her best when they’re factually not, haha.

    Feel like most of her newer fans would say folklore is her best, which is factually accurate.

    Folklore is best, yes

    Cannot fathom listening to any cross section of her music and coming away with the conclusion that Midnights is her best.
