Spotify just made AI music official. They cut a deal with Universal Music Group for AI-enhanced and remixed tracks and we all know where this goes.

This week on AI For Humans, Spotify officially crossed the line. They announced a sweeping deal with record labels, distributors, and music publishers to bring AI music tools to the platform, complete with fan-remix features that use real artist voices and tracks. They also rolled out AI-generated personal podcasts and launched Studio by Spotify, a standalone AI creation app. Gavin and Kevin break down why this changes everything for music, who actually signs up, and why the fan backlash is just beginning.

Meanwhile, a Higgsfield AI feature film just premiered at Cannes for $500,000 total cost, but $400,000 of that was pure AI compute, raising big questions about what the new economics of filmmaking actually look like.

Plus, an unreleased OpenAI general LLM model disproved a central conjecture in discrete geometry that had stood for 80 years, the best new Google Omni prompts and practices and a humanoid robot fail that traveled the entire internet

IS IT TIME TO PANIC? NO, SAYS THESE TWO MORONS.
