I feel exactly the opposite way, but I suppose everyone has a different ear and taste. I think a good 3-4% of what this produces sounds damn amazing and beautiful. I've been vibing to it a lot. Fantastic stuff! There is also the feeling of shock and awe like with ChatGPT where you give it a prompt about a niche thing you think it will definitely not understand and it turns out it understands it shockingly well. As an example I just gave it a prompt "Avril 4th" and the result literally gave me chills.
This is genuinely amazing. Like with any AI there are areas it's better at than others. I hope it doesn't go unnoticed just because people try typing "death metal" and are not happy with the results. This one seems to excel at 70-130BPM lo-fi vaporwave/washed out electronic beats. Think Ninja Tune or the modern lo-fi beats to study to. Some of this stuff genuinely sounds like something I'd encounter on Bandcamp or Soundcloud.
I think I'm beginning to crack the code with this one, here's my attempt at something like a "DJ set" with this. My goal was to have the smoothest transitions possible and direct the vibe just like I would doing a regular DJ set.

I wonder if this could be the future of DJing or perhaps beginning of a new trend in live music making kind of like Sonic Pi. Instead of mixing tracks together, the DJ comes up with prompts on the spot and tweaks AI parameters to achieve the desired direction. Pretty awesome.
