The "Art & music & video" section is really puzzling to me. On one hand, the author mentions liking some AI music, and then links to low-effort songs that at best you could call sort-of catchy... and on the other hand, the author writes about AI video: "Has it ever been used for good?"

Gen-AI can and is being used to make real, worthwhile movies. The best video model available, Seedance 2.5, can't produce clips longer than 30 seconds. The human artistry comes from which clips/shots you ask for and how you edit them together to tell a story. Plenty of people are doing good work here.

Here are some examples. Even if you don't like these personally, they aren't slop. You can feel the creator's intention behind them:
