It seems like Suno, the AI music generator, has become ineffective now. They are no longer generating songs to address our needs, including the desire to satisfy our ears according to our prompts. My suspicion is that they are trying to find people who will become endlessly attached to the AI music generator app, similar to social media—how they designed it to foster dependency.

Just a reminder that when a supermarket or other store asks if you want to contribute to some worthy cause as you check out, the company that owns the store has already made a contribution in a way that benefited their bottom line tax liability enormously. So if you donate, all you're doing is reimbursing the company for the expenditure they already made.
