They are stating the values of their platform. Sure some will sneak in but I support them putting a line in the sand.

This is literally how all of law, terms, regulations, and moderation work. The collective or defining party defines a set of rules.

The rules obviously don't prevent lying or ignoring the rules, but they set the baseline to moderate and act with. Without the rule, Bandcamp would not remove such content, and people could not reclaim their money, and nobody could sue the publishers.

Your reasoning here appears to be "this solution isn't thorough enough" with a later-added mix-in of "therefore it is all a lie to trick you." Which immediately breaks down, as perfect is not the enemy of good, and even if it was a lie (which is a non-sequitur, by the way) then banning some AI is still better than banning none.

I'm not gonna debate it, though. I've rewritten this comment three times now because I need to say my piece in a civil manner and that's hard to do when I've just watched someone shit on one of the few pieces of good news I've seen in weeks. I've done that now, so I'm out.

It's actually surprising, lots of AI bros love to brag when their stuff is made with AI. it self-selects.

You do realize that people can still tell when slop is passed as music. And the only reason it's so prevalent on spotify and whatever other corpo platforms is because it's used to pay artists who upload there less, right?
