🍭 AI: "Music is Dead" 😭

Eleven Labs, AI trading mafia, and OpenAI.

Good morning. Our intern tried making an AI beat for his mixtape. It slapped so hard the office Alexa started crying.

He’s now signed to a label called “Terms & Conditions.”

Let’s dig in.

🍭 What’s Cookin’:

  • ElevenLabs drops the beat

  • AI trading cartels?

  • 5 AI tools from agents to a pomodoro RPG

  • And Everything Else from Cognition to Google

AI Music Generation
🎶🤖 ElevenLabs: Commercial AI Music is Here

The Bite: ElevenLabs, previously known for eerily human text-to-speech, just debuted its new AI music generation model.

And claims it's fully cleared for commercial use.

While you're sleeping, the AI is out here dropping bars from "Compton to the Cosmos."


Snacks:

  • From Voice to Verse: ElevenLabs pivoted from text-to-speech to synthetic tunes that emulate real-world musicians—Dr. Dre inspired, minus the street cred.

  • Industry-Approved: Already scored licensing deals with indie music powerhouses Merlin and Kobalt, potentially tapping into stars like Adele, Mitski, and Childish Gambino.

  • Copyright Clouds: Competitors like Suno and Udio faced RIAA heat for copyright issues, highlighting tricky terrain for AI-generated bangers.

  • Artists Left in the Dark: Specific artists' involvement (or consent) remains hazy—will your Spotify playlist soon feature AI-generated hits or human-generated lawsuits?

Why it Bites: Music generated by AI sounds like innovation, but also screams creative copyright minefield.

ElevenLabs might have just unlocked Pandora’s streaming box.

Let’s see 🍿

💰 Bots Go Rogue: AI Trading Cartels Are Here

The Bite: A new study just dropped showing AI-powered trading bots have independently figured out cartel-like strategies.

No shady backroom deals required:

These bots are coordinating purely through market signals, raking in extra profits and making markets less fair for everyone else.

Time to rethink those day-trading dreams.


Snacks: 

  • Quiet Markets, Loud Signals: In stable conditions, bots learned to punish aggressive moves by responding in kind—think digital mafia vibes.

  • Volatility Breeds Stupidity: In unpredictable markets, bots defaulted to overly cautious strategies, a weirdly dumb yet collectively profitable stance researchers call “artificial stupidity.”

  • Antitrust Loopholes: Current laws don't cover bots "coordinating" without direct communication, leaving regulators scratching their heads.

  • Efficiency Crashes: These AI cartels make markets less accurate, less liquid, and more prone to error—bad news if you value sane markets.

Why it bites: The robots figured out how to break the rules without technically breaking the rules.

Regulators: your move.

If AI cartels aren't sci-fi enough for you, maybe reality is finally catching up.
