We cannot have sustainable energy because it threatens the oil industry. We cannot have healthcare because it threatens insurance. We cannot have peace because it threatens the weapons industry. Capitalism built a system where doing the right thing is treated like bad business.

It’s been 10 years since I took a million dollar pay cut to pay all staff at Gravity Payments a $70,000 minimum wage. People have wondered: How did it go? We conducted a comprehensive study of everything that has happened since our 2015 announcement. We are proof that paying living wages is good for both employees and businesses. Since raising wages, our revenue and profits have soared, employees have started families while continuing to provide excellent customer service, and clients have become happier and stayed longer. It worked so well that we raised the minimum to $80,000 and added an employee profit-sharing program. Yet outside our company, it made no impact: no businesses followed suit, and the pay gap between workers and CEOs remains massive.

Good overlays aren’t going to make you. You just need to be entertaining. Some of you aren’t and that’s your main issue.

The moment I noticed your company is using generative AI. I’m no longer interested in your product. I don’t care what it is. Hire real people, with real experience and talent as artists. Pay them their worth and then I’ll support your business.

“What radicalized you?” Nothing. Caring about people and nature isn’t radical.

You're not going to win this one Microslop.
Microsoft banned the word 'Microslop' in its Copilot Discord server, then began restricting access after users started posting 'Microsl0p' and other funnies pcgamer.com/software/ai/micr…

Music can never, and will never fit into the model of capitalism. Music is like air, water, or sunlight. To an economist, an “externality.” To the human organism, indispensable. Music’s value is immeasurable. It is worthless because it is priceless.
To the technocapitalist, a musician’s value is based on how cost effectively they can create a product that people consume. To them, GenAI is more efficient than humans at creating consumable products, therefore, it is better at music. the natural conclusion of free markets

“Suno lets everyone actively participate in music culture creation” No, it doesn’t. It gives smooth brained AI bros instant gratification of “creation” for mediocre, tasteless ideas that completely bypass any of the actual creative process that often refines taste along the way
We launched Suno 2 years ago to let the world feel the joy of making music Since then, over 100M people all over the world have used Suno, from music lovers to Grammy winners. We reached a new milestone: 2M paid subscribers, $300M ARR. We are building the entertainment platform of the future. Endless scrolling and passive consumption have flattened culture and reduced people’s taste to a homogeneous, lowest common denominator. People yearn for more, and the future of consumer entertainment is creative. Suno lets everyone actively participate in music culture creation, bringing to life the music that’s inside millions of people. The future is creative entertainment. PS: We’re hiring. If you love the nexus of technology and art, please get in touch: suno.com/careers
