It's writing code.

Just hit the nail on the head.

You can't say make me a song like All That Remains, but you can say make me a metalcore song.

Right.

And there's a bunch of stuff that

No, but the thing is, it's not that the AI is deciding what's best.

When I say that people are going to be looking for the best, people are going to decide what is the best.

Well, just from my perspective, like advertising is super important.

I mean, I we released we released our most recent record and like it was all self-financed.

We did it all.

And the advertising, it was like was as expensive as the production of the record.

Yeah, if you want to say, look, I'll license this, that's one thing, right?

They have the license for five or seven years or whatever, so they make the lion's share of the money, but then you get ownership back.

That's kind of the way that the music industry has become nowadays.

If you have, especially if you're a band that has a...

you know a fan base and you have a history you know it's easy to be like we want a license for this long whereas it when when you're trying to start out and you're an unproven product you have no history you have no track record you have no catalog the label's not going to be like yeah we'll totally give it to you give you you know here's a hundred grand to do your record and we don't know if you're gonna if you're even going to stay together for the next six months

was the example was Jojo signed like the world's worst contract it took like 20 years for her to get her song yeah I mean and that's you know labels do that kind of stuff all the time they're like we sign a band for the life of the band is kind of the way that they say it because they want to say

we're putting all this money in up front and we'll, you know, you've got X amount of records.

So, you know, or for whatever the life of the band is, every time we invest money in you and every time we spend money on marketing, you know, this, we want to make sure that we get our investment back and a label will sign 10 bands and maybe one of them will go and do, just be able to break even.

Nevermind, make a lot of money.
