Anyone else think they tanked the market on purpose, creatively speaking, so that AI would seem like an upswing in comparison?

The whole mumble flow, wack production, shoddy mixing etc of the past few decades just lines the devolution up with the emergent tech too well.

We're hearing DIY basics now but once they pump in the full studio sessions, control articulation and melodies then you'll have a better than human rendition.
