Oh, I see.
I would guess Suno's use case is the long tail of people who want bangin' music for their YouTube channel/podcast/home videos but have no idea how to license music or find someone to compose it for them.
As someone that occasionally DJs I have wanted music that hits a certain vibe but finding it on Beatport can take hours upon hours of listening. "Deep house, breathy female humming, no lyrics, sexy" is a really hard search but Suno will make you a couple in less time than it takes to listen. I may or may not use them because of quality issues but it does seem to be improving pretty quickly.
Composing and recording music is already dirt cheap.
There's at least, like, one semester of instruction required to learn a DAW. I can teach myself C++ and how to sys admin and use a DJ mixer. But a DAW just feels too hard without hand holding, same as Photoshop for me.
Being able to prompt Suno and get something fun to listen to (albeit flawed) feels liberating.
Is this going to be akin to that study about how good programmers working on mature projects did not save time using AI tools even though they thought they did?
TRON bike lighting update.
Got a black helmet for myself and for one of my kids and did the final fit of the LED strips before the last push to get them all soldered together. Done, though after hot gluing and heat shrinking it all down, two of the ... 20 connections short out if they flex a bit, so I need to cut them open and redo. It's actually the second connection I did and also the third to last. It makes sense I would screw up near the start before I got the hang of it but near the end doesn't.
Anyway once those are fixed and showing enough durability it'll be time to VHB tape them to helmets.
I was all set to try some demo runs with ESP32-C3s I had on hand but then I noticed a variant which comes with a postage sized OLED screen so I obviously need that so it blinks each kid's name and maybe a cute bitmap design.
