A Welsh music fan has launched AI Slop FM, an internet radio station that mixes AI-generated and human-made tracks without telling listeners which is which, The Register reports. Listeners can rate songs from S to E, tag how they feel and leave written feedback.
Why it mattersThe station is in beta while its creator, Mike Chaffin, gathers enough submissions to fill its schedule. The most popular tracks are intended to feature in a weekly chart, the Slop 40. It’s a small experiment with a useful question at its centre: how much of our reaction to AI music comes from the sound, and how much from the label? If the tracks are anonymous, what should count as a fair test?
