   I'm not that impressed with it. Its "writing" is abysmal. Everything written   
   by AI either sounds like an informercial or a kid padding his essay by the   
   writing the same thing in three different ways to get to the minimum word   
   count for the assignment. It never seems to quite come to a point.   
      
   Garbage in, garbage out.   
      
   I like Irish ballads, so I watched something called "Fields of the   
   Forgotten" on YouTube, I guess it's based on the Great Famine in Ireland. At   
   first I thought there was an actual "group" behind it, and they were just   
   using repetitive and cheesy AI for the video. They say there's a group called   
   "Stone and Shamrock," but then I realized I've heard the same "voices" on   
   other AI produced stuff. But what really turned me off (besides the fact I   
   hate AI) were the lyrics when I listened to them more closely. Stuff that   
   humans just wouldn't write.   
      
   "Where *hungry feet* once wondered home." I can see "hungry eyes" but how do   
   you visualize "hungry feet?" "Rivers learned to cry." So, what exactly does   
   a "river crying" look like? Do river tears somehow separate themselves from   
   the rest of the water? Since the song was full of rain and a dark mood, why   
   not make the "sky learn to cry?" Then the "wind hummed the names of the   
   forgotten." How does "humming" articulate names? The wind also "hummed   
   lullabies," which has the same articulation problem, but it also counters   
   the whole mood of the song, which is dark and dreary. Lullabies are the   
   opposite. Maybe the wind "humming dirges" would have worked. Then there's   
   the redundancy (common in AI), "Still walk the fields again." If whatever it   
   is is *still* walking, how can it "do it again?"   
      
   The sad part is, this song's mood (for the most part) is good. Except, in   
   their hurry to get this posted the "producers" of this song didn't bother to   
   look at what the brain-dead AI produced so they could correct these   
   mistakes. Just a few *human* edited lines and this could have been pretty   
   good. But this is what I find in AI "writing" all the time. It stands out   
   for its crappiness — because it's not human.
