   It's estimated that roughly 20% of all songs uploaded to streaming #music services have not even played ONCE.

   That's literally tens of millions of songs sitting on servers, consuming storage space, and consuming electricity.

   With the rise of #AI-generated tracks, look for those numbers to increase exponentially.

   It's not just the onslaught of (most crappy/derivative) content we need to worry about -- it's the ecological footprint.

   @evan The dangers of "AI", really the dangers of accelerated automation of capitalism with increasing complexity and diminishing human control and oversight, are neither theoretical nor future tense.

   They are not reflected in the majority's daily usage, but they've been here for decades and are growing exponentially.

   It's not about sentient machine overlords, it's about concentrated power to human overlords abstracted away from the harm they're causing.
