Musicians clash over AI music: 30K SoundCloud streams on a Udio track, but no pride
astralmatrix · x · 2026-10-05
A debate over AI music creation: musician MrMammoth says a track he made in Udio (guitar played himself) earned 30K+ organic SoundCloud streams, yet he 'would never be proud to release it properly.' @astralmatrix counters that musicians control their own releases, not what others do with AI. The spat highlights the community divide over AI involvement and creative pride.
