FausterVAL

Genuinely no hate to anyone. At the end of the day, you guys care about helping people, and so do I.  I believe that music belongs to everyone, and that lowering the barrier to entry for music is a good thing. I've seen people light up when they get to create music for the very first time. I've seen Suno improve the creation process for so many lifelong musicians I know. I get to work with independent artists day in and day out, and I wouldn't be here if I didn't genuinely believe it will help more creatives do what they love.  A wide range of musicians use Suno in their creative process, from aspiring musicians to independent musicians to Grammy-winning musicians, and they do so with effort and authenticity. Songwriters are using Suno to underpaint their own vocals, lyrics, and melodies. Producers are uploading their own beats and building on top of it, extracting stems in Suno Studio that they can then take to their DAWs. It’s another tool that people can use to channel their own creativity, and if this tool isn’t for you, that is totally okay. I'm supportive of whatever helps people get their ideas across the finish line. I know AI is really scary. I worry about it too, and I've talked about it many times before. How do we make sure we enable AI for good and creativity? I think this is a question every technologist and every consumer needs to think about, and I'm at Suno because I want to help push towards the right goals. It's our responsibility to foster technology for good. Ultimately, I believe in technology's ability to expand creation for more and more people.  iPhones didn't end photography -- it expanded the definition of who could also be a photographer. Tiktok, Instagram, and Youtube all expanded the definition of who could be a content creator. The fact that anyone can be a content creator today (if they want to be) is really fucking cool to me. Content creation completely changed my life, and I am always going to be passionate about what I believe is expanding creation.  We work with busy parents who get to make their kids songs about the water cycle. We work with poets who get to hear their written words as melodies. We work with seniors in hospitals who see that they can still be creative, even as they lose mental and physical facilities. These stories really inspire me, and I believe all of these people deserve to experience this magic. Creativity is boundless, and there is room for everyone in it.
