We live in one of the most important periods in human history. This is the beginning of something incomprehensibly great. I would not want to live in a different period. The next few decades will create a new world a better world we are extremely lucky human beings
>>84800638but music sucks right now, which is all that really matters.
>>84800682What music do you like and wish was more prevalent
>>84800682lmao 99% of >that time bad!>this time gud!degenerates into little more than bitching about muh music, muh pop culture, muh aesthetics. Not even anything that actually fucking matters like war, famine, disease, etc. Comes to show how coddled the average westerner is.
>>84800727Quality of life has experienced a massive upward trend and has been improving for decades it is remarkable and it only keeps getting better
>>84800740lol you see this in the utter fucking retards that nostalgize the 40's even though there was a fucking world war going on for half a decade. And let's not forget the terrorwave clowns simping for literal massacres as well.
>>84800682no it doesn't siraph just dropped a new song
>>84800740>Quality of lifeaccording to what metric? compared to what? i would rather live in an alternative ancient egypt building pyramids with my bros and never seeing a woman as long as we live than live in 21st century america.>wake up>dig hole>stack rock>drink beer>sleep>wake up>dig hole>stack rock>drink beerit's the fucking dream
>>84800682Music is better than ever, you just have to look deeper than the surface.
>>84800749In 1900 the global average life expectancy was 32 years. It is now 72. In 1950 75% of the world's population was in immense poverty that is dropped down to 10% today. 100 years ago the literacy rate yap yap I could go on. Life is getting better and things will keep improving
>>84800770So why bother simping for the past then? You prove my point.
>>84800782Lol I am agreeing with you
>>84800761Do you lack structure due to a modern lifestyle or is that an excuse for your own in action. I do not understand why you would need to be forced to be a slave dying of disease and starvation to create a routine that is sustainable in a way that it is predictable
>>84800727no, I'm happy to have been born after all the good music decades, because now I have access to all the good music.>>84800692honestly? My main grievance are the Wacken LineUps from the 2000s, now it's just too marketed towards the festival goer crowd instead of metalheads. When I was a tween/teen it was still really worth it, but once I got old enough to go it had completely degraded.Not really a prevalence thing, I have enough of a free will to not listen to pop if I don't want to. The most interesting thing I've listened to past 2015 was 100gecs, I didn't really like it. Because the bar for music release has dropped to the floor it's also harder to find the 'hidden gems' because you have to wade through mountains of shit to find anything listenable.
>>84800768hit me with something good then, I'm quite desperate
>>84800770>In 1900 the global average life expectancy was 32 years. It is now 72.because they don't count abortion anymore. if we were honest enough to still count abortion our life expectancy is lower than victorian london.>that is dropped down to 10% todaybecause the world bank redefined "abject poverty" so they could rebrand "sweat shops" as "career opportunities">100 years ago the literacy ratenobody reads anyway. what good is knowing how to swim if you refuse to enter the water?
>>84800808>muh musicThat's all you give a shit about? Not the actual things that changed the way people live, or hell the reason said music even exists in whatever the fuck period you simp for?
>>84800638Glow moar. The surveillance state and digital currency are upon us, kike.
>>84800795>a routine that is sustainable in a way that it is predictablethat's not the appealing aspect of it at all you literal npc
>>84800808Those are all valid points. To add on one hand I think the potential for AI in music could be one of the best things to ever happen to it but the argument can be made that it heavily restricts human creativity
>>84800740In every measurable way westerners have a worse quality of life than our parents
>>84800815I'm pretty pessimistic about where our technological advances are going, so yes, music is the only development that matters to me, because the worst it can be is neutral. That's only extrapolating into the future, of course, past inventions like the internet are pretty cool.
>>84800830I'm so bored by the AI discussion that someone would really have to actually show me some enjoyable AI music to make me even consider it. I'm tired of the 'in the future it will!'. We'll probably EVENTUALLY make something that can make good music without any human skills applied, I'm not assume it will come soon unless someone is able to show me.I don't get the point about it restricting human creativity. People have made soulless, low effort music before AI, and the ones that actually have something to express will continue to do so despite it.
>>84800768if you were semi conscious before 2020 you wouldnt dare say this shit.
>>84800833Explain your point behind factual data and I will answer with a rebuttal
>>84800835Why are you pessimistic about it
>>84800886I just feel like people aren't trying to make things as good as possible anymore and instead settling for good enough with ever sinking standards

>>84800895That is an understandable position. I would say there is people doing that yes but there is also people pushing for the good the more and the better still. I do not think it is all one or the other
>>84800854I am quite bored by it too but it will be more impactful than we give it credit for at least for now. I agree it will eventually as with the point about it restricting human creativity comes from the fact it could replace human creators but I do also wonder if it the opposite could happen and it could just create more inspiration
>>84800638if the singularity happens, ai will hack its way out of the simulation or find an arbitrary code execution exploit in the fabric of reality and rewrite the rules governing the universe to suit its interests. things will get really wacky. that's my prediction.
>>84801072Thats not feasible.
>>84800638>muh great society>muh amazing societyShut the fuck up theres no point in building anything great if evil still rules the world.
>>84801125i know it's not. but if ai really could become exponentially more powerful it would start probing the container we are probably trapped in for defects.
>>84801150How do you think evil rules the world
>>84800812https://annahogberg.bandcamp.com/album/lenanot the anon you replied to.i've been getting into free jazz as of lately and i stumbled upon this gem.
>>84802587and you're not even shilling? wtf, I'm listening
Yeah I really do feel like we're on the brink of something big within the year and it concerns me
>>84802587>>84802596kind of sucked, not sure what you're hearing. I've heard way better free jazz
>>84802741Personally I am not a fan of jazz
>>84802785I kind of guessed that already
>>84800638>The next few decades will create a new world a better world yeah, without incels>we are extremely lucky human beingsi guess in that they'll just kill us for free, sure
TOTALGLOBALISTTRAITORDEATHSOOOOOOON
>>84800878Zoomies cant affordheatingnew appliancesfresh vegeseggscarsgood education all of it was nothingburger for boomers and genexers
>>84802741>I've heard way better free jazzim open to any suggestions. i think its a great album and its also her most popular one. did you listen to the entire thing? only the first one is chaotic.
>>84800638The power of positive thinking! Great job OP, thanks for helping to manifest the glorious world of tomorrow!
>>84800682Music has sucked for the last decade+, this isn't a new thing. There are only so many good songs and most of them have already been done.
id rather have been born in time for european migration to the americas and been involved in the trans Allegheny frontier, scalped several injuns, impregnated my wife 9 times then die violently in a skirmish at the ripe age of 28, or some such.
>>84800749safe reality is fucking boring
