yep basic longtail effect. back in the day at a PRO (performing rights organization -- music copyright stuff) we would analyse the longtail to death because the ~10% artists would get ~90% of play time (=> apportioned funds).
i guess in this case and probably some other cases that AI slop is just bulking up the longtail even more than before. 90% of people don't listen to AI generated music, it's only weirdos on HN that i've seen claiming to want access to it for personal listening.
